2006 - africans and pilgrims. Look for the juvenile goose - it is the same baby as the one in the African Album as a day-old with her mom. Here she is nearly grown. She is the one sticking her neck out, almost dead-center (between two standing africans).

Here she is again - she's the smallest one, again between two Africans. They are her parents - though it's unlikely they are her biological parents.

Geese mate for life (usually) so since the baby is a cross-bred, the African gander CAN'T be her dad, and since the other one is his 'wife' she can't have produced a cross-bred baby.

I have one 'mixed-marriage' pair of geese, and they have to be the parents. The egg was laid in the nest while the other goose was already sitting.

Here she is flapping her wings.

Our first ever geese - 1987. They were named Bob. Each of them.
