Goose Daycare

I've been noticing that although a pair of geese will have only 3-5 offspring of their own, it's common for a bunch of them to drop the kids off with babysitters and go for a swim/dinner/stretch their wings.This communal/reciprocal  type of childcare allows the adults the freedom they need while keeping the kids safe.

Awesome. 

They're hard to count but there's between 15 and 20 little gosslings here and only 2 adults to be seen anywhere nearby.
