Barncale geese and eurasian wigeons

@Inktober Day 28: Fall Barnacla Cariblanca/ Barnacle Goose (Branta leucopsis) The Barnacle Goose (Branta leucopsis) is a species of bird anseriforme of the family Anatidae own of the north of Europe and the east of Greenland. The Barnacle gooses usually nest on inaccessible cliffs but like other geese, adults do not feed chicks, so newborns have to go down to the ground to feed. That is why the three-day-old chicks, still unable to fly, have to throw themselves into the void at the call of their parents, to fall down planning. Thanks to their low weight and their soft down, most of them are unharmed by the final impact of the spectacular fall. (If you don’t understand the seriousness of jumping off a 120-meter cliff, watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_JoetV3ZTQ ) #inktober #inktober2017 #inktobermcbo #myartistsnetwork #artistsnetwork #fall #bird #aves #goose #barnacle #barnacla #branta #ornithology #betosui @artistsnetwork @inktober @jakeparker
