Woman Helps Struggling Goose Family During Brutal Heat Wave

June 26, 2025

During a sweltering heat wave in Boston, a woman named Julie spotted a small goose family huddled in a sliver of shade—and decided to do something kind.

In a heartwarming video she shared, Julie pours water onto a paper plate and gently places it near the geese, which appear to be a mom, dad, and their goslings. The family immediately begins drinking, clearly grateful for the simple act of compassion.

"A reminder to always look around—someone might need a little help," Julie wrote in the caption.

Viewers were touched by her kindness, with many praising her thoughtfulness. One commenter summed it up perfectly: “Ugh, I’m crying over geese.”
