3 little ducks


3 little ducks

spotted at a lovely craft centre near here, which also has a duck pond.
this must be the second brood this year ~ what i loved is the one in the middle who appears to have little yellow flippers on his feet.

thank you sheila, shirley, sheila, lil, bloomer and scottish! i took loads of photos of these but they move so quickly most of the pictures didnt work, one of those little ducklings fell over and rolled onto his back ~ he was sooooo cute but i wasnt quick enough to get the picture

poor little thing he was so tubby he had a job to roll over and get back up but he did manage quite quickly, it would have been such a great photo.

OOOOOOH I would have ducklingnapped the slippered one and taken him home:-) I took pictures of ducklings in Holmfirth, and when I downloaded all my pics, I was perplexed at how many of the same boring bits of landscape I had photographed. Took me ages to realise there should have been ducklings in the photos! So congratulations on your photography and speed:-))

Have you got a pond? Friends of ours Fred and Hilda, who were friends of OH then mine, were thrilled when a pair of ducks made their home on their two and a half feet diameter pond. They had a lovely sense of humour and thought it so funny that they had left the pond in nearby woods for such a bijou residence. Their happiness sooned turned to exasperation as their ungrateful lodgers filthy habits ruined their pond and wrecked their garden. They were given eviction notices:-))

I dont have a pond!! my youngest son used to live in ely ~ the ducks there lay their eggs all over the place and wander in the road ~ the ducklings are sweet but otherwise lots of mess!!!

nice looking at others tho!!
