A pair of Canada Geese claimed the Charlo osprey nest and made their nest there. Two of their three eggs hatched, and the two goslings took their "leap of faith" and landed safely on the ground below.

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.
What a relief😭❤️✨
The two babies are so wonderful
THESE MILLENIALS!
They are so cute shiny babies 😘😘
I love how they put their wings out when they jump, as if those fluffy chicken nugget wings are gonna work lol
Arctic Geese chicks would like a word kzhead.info/sun/e5WMZrl7j2aIdHk/bejne.html
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.

@@fungames24 I'm sorry did you not just watch them plop to the ground like a bag of potatoes?! Those itty bitty wings did nothin hun.
Considering that other bird species often attack chicks in their nests, I not sure if hi-vis yellow is a good camouflage choice...
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.
First Baby's Jump, so cute & very cute.
Was so happy to see this video had a happy ending .

this is actually quite common for them
Wow how brave the babies were! Thanks for the video!
Human parents: "Come on kids, just jump off the edge of the 50 story building! You'll be fine!" 👮♀️👮♂️👩⚖️
Thanks for sharing. Really impressing.
Well Sir David showed the Barneck Geese young who leap off the sides of cliffs and live to tell lol...
Yea that fall was way worse
Not all of em lived

Finally they can eat. About time.
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
They imprint on the mother.
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
Wow it is so cute
Momma said "Come", we went, always obey and trust your momma.
BEAUTIFUL
They are looking at each other, she's crazy!
Love it ☺ so cute
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.
I guess they're waiting for a seagull to arrive.
Шикарное видео! Кто это?! Белощекая казарка?! Я, к своему стыду, не знала, что они гнездятся на искусственных насестах… спасибо автору видео!
Это канадские серые гуси
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.
Lucky for them they bounce.
What will be the fate of the chicks who fell from their high nests?
4:26 mark - 1st gosling 4:52 mark - 2nd gosling - Aaaaahhhhhh
Que coisa incrível 👏👏👏
Nice video!
Amazing the osprey didn't kick'em out!
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.
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.
Nice camera setting 🤟
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.
😂

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.
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.
That is amazing.
Animal instincts never stop amazing me.. so little, yet look at the high plunge they took..!! Just amazing
Nu-i rau îngrijorarea pentru acești pui dar cand o mama face avort , Nu da naștere la copii sau îi părăsește câți se îngrijorează ?
TY! So amazing & very brave babies, so cute! Now I can sleep. : )
superbe ils ont ensembles
Fearless!
Those geese clearly wanted to live the high life! Phew what a relief!
Odd to only see 2. Usually there is 5 or more or at least the ones we have around do.
So nice👍

How do they go back to the nest? Can they fly?
They never go back. It was a rented home anyway.
Super rolik malades

Super
One thing is for sure, Mother Goose is not a very good housekeeper!
Oh wow way to cool !
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.
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.
Pnter banget ikutan induknya Lucuu...cerdik..👍😁
Looked like a Swan dive.
Lindinhos inocentes fofinhos
Sao fofinhos até o fim.
No birds was harmed in the making of this video
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.

Sorry to be thick but does the mother take the young uns back to the nest or do they now nest on the ground?
They live on the ground now. In more wild areas they jump off from high cliffs. There's no going back up.
@@mitkoogrozev thank you.
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?
Geese can do a LOT higher. kzhead.info/sun/e5WMZrl7j2aIdHk/bejne.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.
Fly lil birdies
Как же страшно им крошечкам ,шлепнуться в неизвестность
Lucu banget udh bisa cari..induknya 💕👍
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
They eat grass so it was jump or starve.. Plus the other geese were calling them
wow
What's the happy ending??
I thought......it was their last.....day!!!!!!
♥♥♥
good
Dude I don't think shes coming back, she better🐤🐤🐤
Pobre Sitos 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Que bom que os pais estavam la embaixo 😃😃😃
I believe I can fly I believe I can touch the sky

👏👏👏👏👏
They are not supposed to nest that high lol.
This is a walk in the park compared to what barnacle goslings fall from.

Ahfad u wrote darood shareef very nice may Allah is reward u .but ur photo may be wearing top n scrurt. U put cover ur body beside face
Aren't geese supposed to be in a pond or river? Doesn't seem they would last very long out on open ground like that with foxes, coyotes and so on about.
When on the water they are prey for pike, muskie, and mammals such as otter.
There was a pond near where I lived in Florida with lots of different water fowl and it was sad to see how many chicks don't make it.
Watch that first step, it's a long one.
where they live is like us living in a graveyard ( kind of)🤔
👍👍
Well??? What happened to them? I guess those are the parents on the ground, eh? (They are Canadian geese, so they say eh a lot.)
😀😍♥️♥️
Looks high to me
At 1:08 there is a coyote or something on the ground
I don't know where i am going but i know where my mother
Legal 😅 eles vivem
Kasian , kok kuat sekali 👍🙏
