Baby Mallards

Here is the family of four baby ducks swimming in the stream past the dam. They are getting larger and are a little more independent.

Mallard and Ducklings

We promise to stop posting pictures of Mallard ducklings soon. However, these were too cute. They've been coming out a dusk and tonight was the first dry day in a while.

Goslings and Ducklings

Some geese brought their goslings into our yard today. They left by way of the dock. We've also spotted some ducklings, but none have been very close. We do try to use the dock ourselves. Fortunately, the Canada Geese prefer Molsons to Corona. "Whitey" has been crashing our parties a bit.

Brown Pelican
The laughing gull would sometime race to where a pelican had caught a fish and try to steal it. Sometimes, it would sit on the back of the pelican.

The Geek Squad

There have been groups of male mallards with no females swimming around the lake for a few weeks. Since its duck mating season, and these males have no females with them, Mike calls them the Geek Squad.
