Just Ducky

This was the scene from my kitchen window yesterday:


You know you’ve had a lot of rain when ducks start hanging out in your yard. Granted, we have a bird feeder and they parked their waddly little behinds under that for a while, before nibbling on some grass and then having a drink from our pool – I mean, pond, I mean huge puddle of floating muddy mulch at the bottom of the slide. I can see the allure of our yard from a duck’s point of view.

And it was a huge delight for the kids. Baboo squealed for at least an hour when she wasn’t quacking, that is.

Now, I wonder if I can invite them back in a few weeks for the all you can eat slug buffet? Hmmmm.
