New Life

Spotted yesterday at Studley Royal: new life – burgeoning; the devoted parents moving forward – often – to protect their young by hissing threateningly at passers by who paused to admire the new babies; renewing and reconstructing the bloodline.

Yes, Becky’s Squares photo challenge has returned – hooray! The only rule is that the image chosen has to be square. This month’s theme is Renew. Or Burgeoning. Or Moving Forward. Or Reconstructing. You get the idea. So here is my first offering.

The photos is also my Last on the Card for Brian. It has of course been doctored to form a perfect square. This is against the rules. But Brian knows I invariably break the rules.

    1. Adult geese are never cute I think. They have only recently moved to our village, and terrorise all the other ducks and moorhens. Not pleased.

  3. Fabulous, I bet you were moving forward quickly when they started hissing! And rules are there to be broken, well apart from the square one of course 😉

  9. Burgeoning is such a lovely word! And those goslings look as if they are thriving, but Geese can be messy creatures to have around – slippery slidey… all fall down.

  13. Great images Margaret. You are right about the adults when they are protecting their goslings. We have a pond in our community and every year it’s difficult for us to walk our dogs around it because of the Canadian geese. And when the babies are large enough, the families get together and walk up and down roads, blocking traffic.
