Here's an odd group-- Mama Mallard Duck (Third from the right) and her 11 almost-as-big ducklings are accompanied by a domestic goose. A typical Mallard female only weighs about 2 pounds, while a domestic goose like this one can easily weigh 20 pounds! 10 times the Mallard! Maybe the goose is like a favorite aunt.

Se ha convertido en familia numerosa. Da gusto verlos pasear todos juntos, en esas buenas aguas.
There is obviously no prejudice there.
The goose is more like an escort
This is the second goose/duck relationship I have seen this week! The other is a Canada Goose/duck..isnt nature fun?
Espectacular!!!!
Amazing and beautiful.
Hermosa foto de la familia y el acompañante
The Goose is happy to join in with the ducks. Good action shot.
Nice to see that at least some species of animals get along well! Great photo.
Quizás el ganso se ha erigido en protector de la pollada. Forman un conjunto muy interesante.
Un abrazo.
Bueno pues ahí está toda la familia y su tía "preferida" en pleno viaje a través del lago.
Una estampa llena de belleza u emoción.
Un abrazo Bill.
I love the favourite aunt theory!
