For the Birds
We have been enjoying the company of some feathered friends lately. In one of my hanging porch baskets a pair of birds has nested and we are awaiting the arrival of the babies. The nest and eggs are quite tiny and we should have hatchlings any day now.
The below pictures were taken last Friday during the all the rain that fell. I was looking out the window and spotted movement in one of my flower beds and then they emerged....a mama Mallard and her 7 ducklings. They had a grand time waddling and quacking as they explored our yard. Oddly enough they avoided our pond and stuck to the flower beds and back yard and then as quickly as they came, they were gone, waddling down the back alley!
