I watched this family of Egyptian goslings grow up in another local park, Walpole Park in Ealing Broadway, from when they were tiny balls of fluff paddling frantically after their mother. Now they are adolescent, but still need a lot of sleep!  Here they are snoozing beside the pond where I used to wheel my daughter over in her pushchair to feed the ducks fifty years ago, and ignoring the passing moorhen.
