Mama Duck and Her Little Duckling...


We have been watching this Mama Duck for weeks now, waiting for her wee one to hatch. Her nest was inside a hollow tree near the swings at our favorite park and today we were treated to the seeing her ducking for the first time! Though I wasn't able to get a picture of him, the proud Papa was looking after his family with great care. The children were absolutely thrilled to see all of this unfold the past few weeks.

How very nice! We're raising 6 ducks for meat right now. My daughter (almost 3) is so very confused. She wants to know which one is the mommy and which one is the daddy. Perhaps someday we will have a mommy and daddy duck hatch a brood.
