The film gives a survey on innate behaviour patterns of the grey-lag goose Anser anser L. The first part shows reproductive behaviour ("triumph calls", mating preliminaries, mating, nest building, covering and retrieving eggs, defending). In the second part some behaviour patterns of gosling being imprinted on their human foster parent are shown: following reaction, separation of two flocks according to their imprinting, response to the alarm call and landing "by order" of the flying young.
