Look what I met on the street( cuteness warning!) 4 new pics about duckling in pond

This morning I went outside to collect my mail. Then I saw this duck with her family. I went back in the house as fast as I could (I still walk VERY slowly), and then I took several pics.

I took a first pic from far away, as I was afraid she would be scared

I doubt that, because there is a gate to enter the garden. I know that mom can fly, but those ducklings :confused: ;) :)

What a cute little family! That a whole lot of duckings for momma to keep track of! And it's soooo nice to know you are slowly getting around again!

;) Aweee how so cute they are..

Aww, they are so cute. :) I thought they might be heading for your pond
too, but momma won't leave her babies. I love watching the little family.
I didn't know the chicks were different colors like that. Thanks for sharing
the pictures Lut. :)

How adorable are they! What a wonderful "visit". Thanks for sharing!!

Those are such CUTE pictures! :D I also did not know the babies could be all colors like that. I wish hooman babies would stay close to mom like that.

Quack Quack.

That is so cute!! I love watching ducks, it is one of the most relaxing things in the world!

Awww how adorable! What a cute little bunch. I love the mommy's markings so pretty. The little ones are like half and half its so cute. Thank you for sharing!

awwww cute....

I remember at my mom's old house there was a creek that ran through the back of the complex. There were tons of ducks that lived there all year round. So I would feed them seed. They started coming everyday and there were more and more and more lol. They even started "knocking" on the patio door if I wasn't out there to feed them lol.

but in the spring when they would have their babies they would bring them up to eat seed. The ducks were so used to me and so comfortable with me that their babies would come right up on me.... I could even hold them. We saved them from our neighbours cat one day.... he wasn't gonna kill them i don't think but he just wanted to .... toy with them lol. did you know ducks play dead? lol.... that cat slapping his paw on the ground and all the babies just dropped to the ground. So I went over and shoo'd the cat away and let momma collect her babies.

Ducklings and goslings are so cute.

This morning there was lots of commotion in our garden! One tiny little goosling was swimming in our pond :eek: ! All 4 cats were almost glued to the window, dreaming about juicy "PEKING DUCK !!!" ;) :D
I tried to catch that goosling with a fishnet; but the darn thing was to fast for me and always rushed to the opposite side of the pond.

I could hardly keep all cats inside all day, so they went out after they had lunch. I was pretty asssured that this duckling was way to fast for them, so I didn't pay much attention. 2 hours later, I called them to come inside; and what did I see??? Zazou was all wet from her waist down to her paws! OMG, her fluffy tail was not fluffy anymore: all WET !!! :)
The duckling din't pay any attention and kept swimming around, and having lots of fun.

I bet he enjoyed his little holiday in your pond - especially with that silly cat to laugh at :D

What a cutie, I hope he found his way back to his mum.
