A Goose Family Feathursday
Mildred and Horace Start a Family!!
Every spring for the past few years a mating pair of Canada Geese take up residence on the green roof outside our window for a couple of weeks. We've named them Horace and Mildred, and we did a post about them in 2021. We wondered if they would ever establish a nest in the roof's sedum, but they just hang out for a few weeks and then depart. This year they finally decided that our roof was suitable to start a family and about 20 days ago Mildred set up housekeeping with a downy nest and six eggs near one of the vents on the roof. We are all very excited here in Special Collections, and we maintain daily goose alerts!
Mildred will incubate her brood for about 30 days, rarely leaving the nest. She is a very devoted mother. Horace on the other hand is usually gone during the day, so we rarely see him. Canada Geese are monogamous and mate for life, so we don't think he's cheating on Mildred, but we all thought he would be more present as the male usually hangs about to help guard the nest, but apparently he has other ideas.
We should see some hatchlings in about ten days or so, and we'll bring you an update then. While we are interested in seeing the couple nest on our roof, we also have concerns. There is no water, and the goslings will be susceptible to falling off the roof and becoming prey to raptors and other avian predators, especially the peregrine falcons that raise their own families on the nearby roofs of our campus's tallest buildings. Nature will have its way, but we do hope that Mildred and Horace have strategies for keeping their family safe.
Stay tuned!

Still thinking about omegaverse stuff, anyways:
Imagine getting violently woken up in the middle of the night because an omega in your life (partner, family member, friend you were having a sleepover with, etc) had to rearrange their nest, and they’re just moving you around to the perfect spot like you’re one of their pillows

My parents have a small citrus tree in a pot that spends most of the year inside, and goes out on their back porch in the summer, and this year a pair of robins built a nest in it and they have 4 babies!

They grow up so fast! I expect they'll have already left before the next time I visit. (Photos by my mother)

I saw your posts about Jason coming back and letting Talon!Dick know but not Bruce or Tim, and Bruce and Tim thinking Dick is hallucinating Jason, and I bring you: Talon!Dick wanting to wrap himself around his owlet, to hold Jason so tightly that nothing will ever be able to pry the two apart again, but finding himself unable to because Jason is so big now.
He feels bittersweet about Jay's size because on one hand, he can't hold his owlet anymore, but on the other Jason is so big and strong now that it'll be hard for anyone to kill him again; he's trained almost as well as Dick now, with the amount of teachers he's had.
And while Dick is mourning that Jason can't fit in his arms anymore Jason just sighs and rolls his eyes before wrapping his arms around Dick, picking him up with ease, and throwing them both in the next he has in his apartment (because of course Jason would build a nest, Dick's nest was the first place he felt truly safe) and just wrapping himself around the Talon, holding him as hard as he can because he knows Dick doesn't get hurt easily. Jason holds Dick like Dick used to hold him, and this might be even better frankly because now Dick is warmer than ever, wrapped up by his owlet and surrounded by the safety of a nest, and his head is right by Jason's neck/chest, meaning he's able to easily hear Jay's strong pulse/heartbeat, a constant reassurance that he's come back.
🦉🦉
Dick would belly flop right on top of Jason at any given opportunity, soaking up all the warmth while simultaneously reassuring himself of Jason’s continued state of aliveness. This position also has the added benefit of his owlet being unable to slip away without Dick noticing.
Yes he’s a little sad his owlet doesn’t fit under his chin like he used to, but- but maybe that’s just as well. Because the last memory Dick has of doing that… Jason was cold, and his bones were wrong and Jason- and—
Maybe it’s better like this.
(And yes, Jason only sleeps in nests. Every bed is immediately converted into a neatly structured formation of blankets and pillows. This habit does not stop even during the time he spends… away.)
