Here are those goslings that jumped 14 ft. The one which was stunned has died.
The other 3 are doing very well . I saw them today and they are developing plumage like the older geese.

Antonio and Liam these a re Goslings.
One of my previous spottings has historical goslings who are 7th generation. Their mother raises them on the roof of the Contra Costa times news paper.
After they are a week old she flies down 14 ft and calls them to jump down 14 ft. All her 7 generations of goslings have done that.
I had also posted a video narrated by Gary Bogue who is our local and well known conservationist.
