The next nest I found because I could hear the goslings peeping. But it looks like I'm a day too early. Each of them had a hole started, but they hadn't pecked through yet.

I had to be careful and make sure that Mom and Dad were the first to return to the nest. Ravens were everywhere waiting for an opportunity. This guy was a few miles away and eating a goose egg.
The sixth had "run away" about a foot, tripped on a twig, and laid still while I took his picture. Mom and Dad were close by and a little irritated.
I returned the next day about noon and found these guys. No shells around and they are all dry and fuzzy. But only five.

After seeing the footprints I was surprised to find these eggs. A Canada goose nest.
Here are some interesting footprints. At the bottom, pointing up, are coyote. At the top, pointing down, are bob cat. Maybe they fought and created the hole in the sand.
Walking on the island beach was fun. This two foot by three foot hole was interesting. All of those footprints, and not one human.
