The mother goose waits until all her eggs are laid before she begins to sit on her nest to incubate her eggs. Incubation time usually lasts between 28 and 30 days. Mating season for the geese is usually between February and March, nesting occurs around April and the majority of goslings will hatch between April and May.
When egg laying begins the "Father" goose will stand sentinel, on watch nearby. He will not stand so close as to give away location of the nest to a predator. When a solitary goose is seen during nesting season, it is more than likely that a nest is somewhere in the vicinity.
The eggs in a nest are called a "clutch" and the average number of eggs in a nest is five. The mother goose will lay one egg at a time and each egg will be laid approximately one day apart, until the full clutch is laid.
Eggs that are not being incubated are cool to the touch and when undeveloped eggs (still fluid) are placed in water, they will sink or float vertically with the wider portion of the egg pointing down. Developed eggs will float horizontally or at a slight angle and break the surface of the water. At that point they are one to two weeks away from hatching. If they are wild geese, it is important not to touch the eggs as the parents will be extremely protective over the eggs and may attack. If they do not attack, there is a chance you will scare them off and they may not return to their eggs to care for their young.
All of the goose eggs in the single clutch will hatch on approximately the same day and baby geese are called "goslings". Natural predators of geese are foxes, raccoons, owls and snapping turtles. Goslings can fly approximately two to three months after hatching.

The burial vault at Rodd Point is all that physically remains of the estate of Brent Clement Rodd. The family lived at Barnstaple Manor nearby, and 10 members of the family were once buried in the vault. They were removed to Rookwood Cemetery in 1903. For some years the location of the mausoleum was forgotten, but in 1977 it was restored and the stone cross returned from Rookwood.

I didn't go to elementary or middle school here in Victoria so I missed out all the tourist attraction field trips.
I'm slowly crossing tourist attractions off my list. This was Fort Rodd Hill and the Fisgard Lighthouse.
