Ducks!



I looked out the front door this morning to find this broody paid of mallards in the front yard. When I popped open the front door to take their picture, they waddled over next to the greenhouse.

Never had ducks in the front yard before. They were pretty clearly looking for a safe nesting site, but I would not recommend my front yard, as I have raccoons and fox that come there every night looking for a meal, to say nothing of a Coopers Hawk that plinks off the occasional bird from the feeders handing off the steel pole at right.
