Image result for pictures of barnyard white geese gaggle with young

Bundle of yellow Waddling behind the gaggle Gander honks message Upon the lawn lifeless form Still, small gosling three weeks old Days pass sad mood stays Summer passes into fall White geese waddle home Gaggle recovers from loss Winter cold no match for down Spring appears in hues Testosterone surges forth Gander flutters wings Gosling leads the flock forward Gaggle honors bravery

Andrea, It is sad to see any animal meet its fate..I felt so sorry for the baby and for the gaggle with the new member gone in such a short time..Thanks for stopping by..Sara
