The other morning I looked out the back window and I saw not 1, not 2, but 13 ducks! I think they were all from the same family--a male and female were off from the rest of the flock, just keeping watch. Of course, they all looked to be the same size, but it IS that late in the season, so the babies would be as big as mama and papa by now. We haven't had that many ducks in the yard at one time before. It really was kind of cool.
Here is a picture of the ducks I think are mama and papa--you can see them right at the bottom:
And here are all of the 'babies':
If you look real closely, you can count 12--one of the parents made it into this pic.
The ducks just wandered around the back yard for about a half hour and then a little at a time, they all just flew away.
And We DO Live In A City!
