This overhead image depicts a family of Egyptian Geese (Alopochen aegyptiaca) situated on a grassy bank bordering a waterway in Strasbourg, France. The scene is characterized by a verdant green grassy slope in the upper portion, transitioning to bare earth and a sturdy stone retaining wall in the mid-ground. One adult Egyptian Goose is observed resting on a patch of bare earth at the base of the grassy slope, positioned to the left. To its right, a cluster of at least three, distinctively striped black and white goslings is huddled together on the dirt path immediately above the stone wall. A second adult Egyptian Goose stands upright on a narrow earthen ledge directly above the stone retaining wall, situated to the right of the goslings and facing towards them. The lower half of the image showcases the multi-tiered stone retaining wall, constructed from large, irregular grey and light-colored blocks, displaying visible signs of weathering and some organic growth. At the bottom left, a wooden structure, possibly a ramp or part of an old sluice, extends into the dark, rippling water of the canal or river. A narrow, lighter-colored ledge runs along the waterline beneath the main retaining wall on the right.
