Surprise Duckies!

I was heading out on an errand and came to a halt when I saw the following family making their way past our mailboxes. What caught my attention were the yellow babies since normally all the mallard ducklings are brown and yellow.





To my alarm the mother walked right out in the road as some cars were coming. However the babies crossed safely.

When I returned about half an hour later I kept an eye out for them. I spotted them sitting under a tree by the fence separating us from the (usually) cornfield next door.

Baby ducks rank high on the adorable meter alright.
