City geese

Over the years a group of grey geese has formed in Haapsalu who hatch their chicks on the islets and then bring them into town. Luckily the purpose isn’t to share food with humans, but to raise the chicks safely. It seems that this advantage has made the otherwise shy birds quite brave.

There are 51 birds in the flock, 32 of them young.
