Proud Mama of 11 chicks.

although it is still winter, the Egyptian Geese are starting early with their breeding. It must be due to our unusual weather pattern this year.

It is very much appreciated :-) @kchuk @pyrrhula @taffy Unfortunately half of them do not. The crows come andtake them.For that reason they hide in the reed till they are big enough.
