In album: Cotton Patch Geese
While I was out taking pictures, this pair commenced breeding.  I only had kiddy pools last year, and that seemed like enough, so I did not change to the larger stock pools.  I had not seen the girl's head submerged like this before though.  It scared me a bit.  The gander looks ragged because of all the fighting that had been going on before I finally split up the pairs.  Things are much calmer now.
