the story of the saved gooseling, chick

HERE'S THE STORY:

Jim and I went for a walk by pier 8, down the street from my house. We saw a Canadian goose with her little chick swimming..
We walked around and on the way back, we saw the little goose struggling to get up the hill to get to his mom. we stuck around in case it needed help. It got up but then we heard another baby goose crying. It was dark out and lucky Jim had a mini flashlight on his key chain
There are these concrete holes and there was a baby goose down in one.
I reached in the 2 ft hole and took him out..adorable
I put him near his mom but she rejected him and I figured it was because I touched him.
I felt bad.
I was at home worried that the chicks may fall in again so I figured have to go back to fill the holes. Especially since the forecast was calling for rain and if they fell in they would die from drowning.
I had this foam mattress topper that has been in my closet for years so I decided to cut it up and take it down there and stuff the holes.
so that's what I did at 1am..lol
I stuffed them with soft material so the babies wouldn't fall in.

At first I was thinking of filling the hole w/ rocks but thought people may think I was burying a body if I went down there with a shovel...ha ha
more good news...
when I got there the mother was laying down with both babies snuggled beside her...she accepted the one I touched..

the point of this story is we can all help animals, even in weird ways at weird times of night..
