Day 323 - Ducklings to ducks

Our ducklings have grown into ducks. Surprising, that. I haven't seen them for a while so I had to follow them for a quick pic today. Wonder why they're not cooling off in the pond, considering today's mid-30s temperature.

The next picture has captured the indecision of a couple of the ducks. Which way?

Day 257 - Duck family

Our duck couple at school have had ducklings. I've been hoping to catch a glimpse of them for a few days now. Today I rushed out with the camera after a tip-off from a colleague and followed them across the grass over the path and into the pond. Amazingly the boys stopped to let the ducks pass. Seems they have more respect for them than their teachers. We just get bowled over. Might start quacking.
