Description This little darling was a weak gosling, he tried and tried to get out of his shell, and i waited hours, but in the end it looked as if he was going to die in the shell before he'd had the chance to live. I helped him out and he lived a few more hours, but the stuggle it seemed, was too much and he didn't make it.

I hope you like this photo, as sad as it is, he was a real cutie and he seemed to trust what i was doing.

Poor little blighter, a fighter till the end, I admire the little gosling for that. I think alot of people could learn from that.
