Do Canadian geese leave their babies?
They will never abandon their goslings, even under intense pressure and threats to their lives. If the parent geese do fly off, it is only a strategic ploy to allow the goslings to escape by taking advantage of their speed, agility, and ability to hide in small places. The parent geese always return.
Thanks to everyone that views and comments on my images - very much appreciated.

A pair of goslings was accompanying their parents in Tom McCall Waterfront Park while I was on my walk. I think they're so cute at this age!
This lynx was a pleasant surprise. Until seeing this lynx, I did not know that lynx roamed up in the Arctic regions of Alaska. I was out looking for Arctic or Red Fox when I saw this Lynx walking across the tundra. At first, I thought it was a fox that I called "Stubby," because his tail was somehow lopped off so it was bobbed. As I put my long lens on it from far away, I was surprised to find out it was a Lynx. I stopped my truck and got out and started walking towards the direction the Lynx was walking. I came over a drift and the Lynx was about 30 feet in front of me walking away. I was sure it would run off but to my surprise, it turned towards me, sat down, eventually laid down, washed itself, and within an hour's time, it actually closed its eyes and drifted off to sleep.
I was so excited, that I forgot how cold it was until I turned to go back to the truck. I think I shivered all the way back to my camp.
Somewhere between Vancouver and Fort St. John we crossed these beautiful snow-covered mountains. I took advantage of a break in the cloud cover to capture this image shortly before dusk.
British Columbia, Canada. May 2022.
Finally I managed to find and photograph my nemesis in the open for a few split seconds! These are among my favourite birds, that necklace is absolutely stunning!
The name says it all, really, but the weather was never going to dampen my awe at the spectacular views all around me.

Maybe they were secretly performing a training for the next Olympic Games 😄
