Guardians of the Goslings at Confluence Park
A pair of adult Egyptian Geese stand watch over their young goslings along the rocky banks of Confluence Park in San Antonio, Texas. Set against the park's distinctive stone bridge, this wildlife scene captures the protective nature of the parents as their fluffy chicks explore the shoreline. The warm spring sunlight highlights the family's rich colors and textures while celebrating the harmony between urban design and thriving wildlife along the San Antonio River. Captured with a Nikon D610 and 300mm telephoto lens, this photograph preserves a fleeting family moment where curiosity, vigilance, and the beauty of nature come together in one peaceful Texas landscape. #EngelPhotography #EgyptianGoose #Goslings #Waterfowl #BirdPhotography #WildlifePhotography #ConfluencePark #SanAntonio #SanAntonioRiver #Texas #NaturePhotography #LandscapesAndNature #FamilyInNature #Spring #UrbanWildlife
