It’s Duckling Time!

I’ve been very fortunate to see so many ducklings over the last few days. Adorably tiny feather balls, they are some of the cutest little ones ever.

Dad was bringing up the rear, but I didn’t include him in the photo. They were moving quickly and I wanted to get a picture.

On my return trip, I saw that mom was teaching them how to forage in the long grass next to the shoreline. Not only good pickings there but good protection, too.

I don’t know how many will survive as lots of predators see them as an excellent snack, but this mom is doing her best to keep them safe.

Happy Sunday.
