Quackers


Quack Quackity Quack!

Recently, we headed to the park to feed the quackers -- uh, ducks (and to burn off some Noli energy since she was spending the night...)



I kept telling her that she needed to tear the bread into little pieces!



Yikes! They're ganging up on her!



Even though I was using the zoom, I still got up pretty close to this one.



Pfptpfptpfptpfpt!! Blowing a raspberry at us!!



This one kinda scared me -- he was moving at a fast clip right at us!



Then we started around the lake, and stopped at our favorite tree to feed the ducks. We like to stand on the roots and Noli wonders why I won't let her get too close to the water's edge....
Don't worry, I won't fall, Mumsie!
Yeah, like I'm going to risk that!



and guess what Noli discovered!!



Aren't they cuties?!!


Noli kept asking where the mommy was
and I kept answering "I don't know!"



Is this the mommy??
Nope!



 Here she is! 
(and I can tell you, mommy is not a runway model....)



But she obviously loves those ducklings and watches over them with care...



C'mon kids, stay close to mama!



Noli makes extra duck footprints with a stick



and picks up a fluffy feather



Do you think ducks know to cross the street here? she asks  : )

I guess so.... they've got pictures!

Ducks Galore!

It's Thursday, and that means Alphabe-Thursday over at Jenny's place! Today we are studying the letter D and, for me, it's Ducks!!

Earlier this week I decided to go for a duck walk at a local park. It was a nice day, not too hot yet, and apparently too early in the (late) morning for a lot of kids to be playing on the playground. This park has a big lake with a hiking trail around it, lots of trees, a cute area to sit and watch, and lots of ducks!





I brought bread to feed them -- maybe not the best diet but they sure do love it!! 



Wait for us! We want bread too!



I love duck feet ....



and duck bottoms!!



all together now!!



This rippling reflection is awesome! (and the duck bottom)
Click on it to get all the awesomeness!



Swimming away 



Walking away



Coming back



Taking off



Gathered together



Is that bread for me?
Darn those pigeons, they got there first ....



So the ducks know where to cross ....



Wait! Do you think the ducks know which crossing to take?
I love the way the duck sign is the one with the WORDS!!
