Thank you so much, Janice and Anne for your lovely comments about the ducklings. I really was fortunate to have my little camera with me that day.

Thanks for looking. :)

Jas - Ducklings are among my favorite pictures and these are so very beautiful with their yellow and black beauty. Also the white on the 2 ducklings breasts - that was an extra treat. So cute! One of the best things about spring is the fresh young beauty! Great picture!

Jas what a great shot of the duck family. I love the colors of the baby ducks when they are young.

Carol, Bruce and Karen...Thanks for your very nice comments.

Baby animals and birds, always make nice photo's and it was just by chance that I happened upon this cute little brood. :)

Beautiful family shot. What a prolific pair! It looks like they are training the babies in shallow water.

Nice family photo. Around here (Western NY), the ducks and geese are still checking out nesting sites!
