Sensing danger, the gosling dived underwater to evade capture, but the eagle swiftly scooped it up with its talons. It seemed all hope was lost until the mother goose sprang into action. Knowing that fish eagles struggle to fly with waterlogged feathers, she chased the eagle to the nearby bank where it landed to dry off.
On the bank, the mother goose confronted the eagle, spreading her wings to appear larger and bravely lunging at the predator. The exhausted eagle released the gosling, which quickly darted back to the water. The mother goose then distracted the eagle to ensure her baby’s safe escape before making her getaway.
