Fresh from the nest, this young greylag gosling embarks on one of its very first aquatic adventures. Its downy plumage repels the water with remarkable efficiency, each droplet glistening like tiny jewels upon its back. Though barely days old, instinct propels it forward—every paddle a lesson, every ripple a new discovery in the art of survival.
