First Ducklings Grow

[yourlibrarian]

Those ducklings I posted about in earlier weeks are growing fast! What's more, to our complete amazement, this is the first brood we've seen on our lake where not one duckling has been lost during that time. All twelve are still here!





It was funny to watch them eat -- they are as speedy at it as they are at swimming.







Then they went to duckie beach to relax for a while. I've no idea why on such a hot day all the babies wanted to create a pile but there they were.



This photo of mom because amused me, as the camera caught her with her eyes closed. I'm sure she's not been getting a lot of rest with this brood.
