Spring Scenes

Ah, the wonderful things we can see living on the water in Spring! Here is Mrs Duck with 8 of her ducklings... Sadly this brood has now been reduced to 6, the ever present food chain in action. But it is lovely to see her and hers. Pete took this photo on what he believed to be their first outing, they were so small! This was two weeks ago and now they are regular visitors for bits of bread around early evening.
