'Nenenene' heralds new life despite wintry weather
Two Hawaiian goose goslings have defied the winter weather and hatched at our duckery, where they can now be seen by the public.
Also know as 'nenes' (pronounced 'naynays') because of their soft grumbling call, these gentle geese - classified as vulnerable by the IUCN - are hugely popular with visitors.
And in this image we snapped at the weekend, it appears we may have an even rarer version of the species on our hands - a two-headed one, no less!
Does that make it a 'nenenene' then? Or as one member said on our public group Facebook page, a 'push ne pull ne'!?
