Goose family

Outside the window on the path by the lake I can see the goose family. The little goslings were just brown and grey balls of fluff at first. Then they were a little bit bigger brown and grey balls of fluff. But this morning, suddenly, they have the coloring of grown-up geese. White bellies, strong black stripes, grey feathers on their back and head, no baby down any more. Grown-up geese in miniature. Soon they will be all big and part of the flock (gaggle), and I won't be able to tell which ones are the babies.
