Nesting Pair of Canadan Geese in my backyard


 

This all came about in the end of March this pair has been showing up on occasion. Nest building was started about 10 days ago when she sat at this spot for about 3 hours picking at the grass around her and placing it under her. Then they left and were not seen for about 2 days then returned and were very territorial even to the point of charging up to me when I was out back.


 

Now she is picking goose down to put into the nest.

 


 

Taken on Friday night shows the Gander by the nest with her sitting on it.

 

Bare nest it's hard to get a close-up to count the eggs as they are very protective now more to follow.
