Visitors Tonight

We were inside getting dinner ready when we heard a bunch of quacking outside. We looked outside to see a momma duck and 11-12 ducklings on our patio. By the time I thought to get the camera they were already leaving. They headed through a neighbors yard. Jim said that they had just left the nest & the momma duck was taking the babies to water (where they would be safer). The all stopped under a bush in front of a neighbors house.....they had gone quite a distance & I guess two noisy boys chasing them had made the momma duck a bit nervous to go any farther.
