Brave wee Chick Goslings - so gorgeous and smart .

It seems so cruel when Mom flies away and the chicks stay astonished waiting. When they suddely decide to GO ! Real little warriors 🤩🥰🥰

And here are my pigeon babies that are as big as their parents and still in nest

I. Love. This. Thank you for posting.

A pair of Canada geese nested every year on top of an old railroad pier (tracks long gone) in the Potomac River near Williamsport, MD. Those goslings would make a similar leap into the river once hatched. I haven't been in the area during nesting season for some time. Perhaps those birds still nest there each spring.

The two babies are so wonderful

What a relief😭❤️✨

I love how they put their wings out when they jump, as if those fluffy chicken nugget wings are gonna work lol

Their little wings do provide some resistance, which definitely slows down their descent. Similar to air brakes and flaps on a plane. I would also guess that it provides some balance, keeping them up right

It does work. The gosling body is shaped as the main flying surface. The wings control the direction of flight. Same arrangement is on ships. The rudders are tiny but have huge effect.

THESE MILLENIALS!

May say the parents are calling the goslings, however the hatchlings aren't very old and they understand language or sounds and know to leap? Fascinating. Is it all instinct? Is it herd mentality? Still Fascinating.

They are so cute shiny babies 😘😘

First Baby's Jump, so cute & very cute.

Considering that other bird species often attack chicks in their nests, I not sure if hi-vis yellow is a good camouflage choice...

Wow how brave the babies were! Thanks for the video!

Years (and years and years) ago when I took freshman Biology at U. Of Colorado, we each got a chick to take home (to the dorm no less) to learn how they imprint. My chick followed me everywhere. I wonder if the imprinting process is what drives these chicks to just Geronimo over the side. It’s just amazing they can just carry on once they hit the ground.

Yes, they will follow their parents everywhere. Also a gosling is so light and squishy that some goose species nest in mountains and the chick have to jump hundred of meters after being born to follow their parents. They are basically immune to fall damage lol

Yeah, but I've seen a video where 3 jumped all crashed into the cliff (normal) 2 survived the fall, 1 was eaten by a crow so only 1 survived.@@Fankine78

this is actually quite common for them

Finally they can eat. About time.

Human parents: "Come on kids, just jump off the edge of the 50 story building! You'll be fine!" 👮‍♀️👮‍♂️👩‍⚖️

I've heard that ducklings, goslings, cygnets and chicks (or any species) their body and bones are soft so when they fall from that height they didn't broke any unlike adults. So, this is basically a normal and natural thing. Is like when your parents told and taught you to be brave to slide or jump and everything will be alright :)

Yes, and they are so light it helps...plus they usually land on top of vegetation that cushions their fall.

Why should they jump off the nest? Does the mother bird mean to stop coming back here to feed them?

Geese only remain in the nest 24 hours or less after hatching. The parents are on the ground calling to them.

Thanks for sharing. Really impressing.

Wow it is so cute

Momma said "Come", we went, always obey and trust your momma.

What will be the fate of the chicks who fell from their high nests?

Nu-i rau îngrijorarea pentru acești pui dar cand o mama face avort , Nu da naștere la copii sau îi părăsește câți se îngrijorează ?

4:26 mark - 1st gosling 4:52 mark - 2nd gosling - Aaaaahhhhhh

They are looking at each other, she's crazy!

They have to leave shortly after hatching as they need to eat and the parents don't bring food back to the nest like high nesting birds do. Highly unusual for these geese to nest in a high location.

I guess they're waiting for a seagull to arrive.

Lucky for them they bounce.

This is not "brave" which is anthropomorphizing nature. It's normal behaviour goslings, ducklings jump big heights from clifs and trees when leaving the nest.

Indeed. Even in humans the term often doesn't make sense. The humans who are called brave for doing something, that act is normal for them. They are used to that behavior, and the brave label comes from someone who is afraid and projects that the other person must also be afraid, but somehow does the brave act anyway.

Those geese clearly wanted to live the high life! Phew what a relief!

Nice video!

My God!! So brave two little babies!!! Good job babies!! There is still one egg left in the nest..? I think the mother goose will be back... Thank you for the beautiful video!! 👍👍

There are only shells left in the nest. There were originally 3 eggs, but one broke a week or two ago. Two hatched, one yesterday and one today.

Amazing the osprey didn't kick'em out!

At first I wondered why the little gosling's had the green color to them but then it dawned on me that when they jump they have to kind of blend in with the grass to guard against predators.

Nice camera setting 🤟

I have never seen a goose land on an aerial nest. How can a large goose like that land on such a small target? Also, the goslings are much larger than the eggs, indicating that they have been growing since hatching. But what were they eating? There is no food source in the nest and I have never seen a Canada Goose harvest food and take it to a gosling. This video is interesting but makes me curious.

@anitalornie1743

Their fluffy feathers make them look larger and all hatched chicks still have some of their ‘growing’ egg yolk left so they can survive for a few days without any other food. Sorry I dont know the correct terminology.

Odd to only see 2. Usually there is 5 or more or at least the ones we have around do.

Hahah, I don't think that the first gosling was REALLY trying to jump down that time, it looked like he was just trying to jump over the log and misjudged his leap, being born only a couple of hours or so ago. :p He went over very awkwardly, the second gosling did it proper.

No birds was harmed in the making of this video

So nice👍

Oh wow way to cool !

TY! So amazing & very brave babies, so cute! Now I can sleep. : )

This explains why young humans climb and fall out of windows. The jump gene was present before the evolutionary split between proto-humans and proto-goose

LOL. I wonder, will the parents make a new nest next to a pond now ? These chicks can't get back to the high nest- no way, till they have full feathers.

Looked like a Swan dive.

I find it interesting that geese would nest high up on such a small platform in the first place, when you consider how large a goose is, and their technique when landing on say water, and even fields, they not good at hovering?

@Shivian124

Geese can do a LOT higher. kzread.info/dash/bejne/emWHmLd8iJe4caQ.html And they do it to avoid predation. For Arctic Geese, Polar bears can wipe out all the eggs from an entire land based colony. These chicks make it to birth which is a huge advance on that! Then approx 50% survive the first month from there.

Remember the Alamo!! 🦆🦆🦆
