Wild Bird Wednesday



Mrs. Duck arrived at the base of my big tree where I put food out for the wildlife.  Sadly she came too late because it had all been consumed, so there was nothing but the lesson for her babies to learn about where to go to find food ... when it's there.

So I grabbed my camera and by the time I got out there she had already made it down the hill and into the lake.

Mr. and Mrs. Duck have been coming to my feeders for four, maybe even five years.  There are others, but they are the regulars ...

This year Mrs. Duck has only five ducklings ... last year she had ten and they all survived.

So five should be easy for her unless something tragic happens ... don't like to think about that.
  But, so far so good ...
Have a good day, Mrs. Duck ...
