    OK, this little guy obviously just managed to make his escape from somebody’s Easter basket. I don’t know what’s cuter, the downy-fuzzy wingy-thingys or the little web-footed-rubber-booties.

  5. Theo says:

    Love the doppler-effect hovertext.

  6. who? says:

    OMG! The fluffular goosey ‘tocks!

  7. hovertext as always…exit row!!!

    and, ironically, that gosling’s back is about how much space i had for my butt on the my last flight. hi-yo….

  8. Michelle says:

    Stabilized. Approaching takeoff speed. Flaps positioned…

  9. Moony says:

    Wow! It’s not even tiny feathers but more like fluff. I had no idea.

  10. AuntieMame says:

    I would totally sit in this exit row! But it doesn’t look like it has any more leg room…

  11. jen says:

    Wing stubbulence!

    LUFF eet.

  12. PJ says:

    Squee! We have goslings right now on the grounds where I work. When they’re brand new they tend to fall-down-go-boom when they run–I feel bad for laughing, but it’s so cute!

  13. fluffernugget says:

    Oh My! Fuzzy wuzzy winglet nubbins.

  14. Holly says:

    Hay peepulz, hau abaut ze BEEKINGS?

  18. Raemie L. says:

    Eee! Teensy wing stubs!

  19. Raemie L. says:

    jmuhj, I think I looked at the beak too long, because while duckie beaks can be cute and ‘smiley’ like dolphins’ “mouths”, now I think the white markings on his beak look like fangs. :P Count Duckula taking flight?

    [Covers up a white marking with a hand-shaped cursor.]
    Ahh, that looks better.
    [Count Duckula chomps "hand".]
    Owww!
    Duckula: Mm… pixel-flavored.

    Wingbuds!!!!! I lub heem. Me thinks these are bebe canada gooses. I lub them at this age because eventually they grow up to be beer-drinking, hockey-jersey-wearing lumberjacks and they are a little less cute then. SNORGLING GOSLINGFLUFFINESS.

  21. Wendy L. says:

    jmuhj, those are not fangs on beak. Bebe is messy eater.

    Birdcage, you are right. This ees a bebe candada gooses. Mama and Papa Goose were standing guard nearby.

  22. Raemie L. says:

    Oops, I DID read “gosling” yet went on about ducks in my 2nd comment! Oog, and I happen to like Canadian geese, too. Nice pic, Wendy L. :)

  23. Subhangi says:

    OMG! Two of my Vox peeps posted about ducks, and now Meg is in on it too!

    SQUACK.

  25. Valerie says:

    I’m laughing my butt off because the first thing I thought was “OMG, look at those adorable winglets!” And then I click on the comments and everyone is saying the same thing.

  26. Sprock says:

    Now THIS is an airline that I wouldn’t mind being stuck on the tarmac with.

  27. Sprock says:

    In deference to the teachings of my jr high English teacher, Mrs. Barnes, I must eliminate the preposition hanging at the end of my sentence.

    Now THIS is an airline with which I wouldn’t mind being stuck on the tarmac.

    Happy, Mrs. Barnes?

  28. Gail says:

    @birdcage: ROFL!!! Little peep-let is only a week old and he’s already watching “National Hockey Night” with a Canadiens jersey that’s 9 sizes too big!!!!

  29. DUCKEHS!

    (Sometimes I go to mcmurrayhatchery.com and fantasize about getting pet ducklings. It’s like window shopping.)
