HONK!!
The kids are so excited, okay Mom is too, we have 2 ducks frequenting our yard. Mallards to be exact. A male and female have been parading around the yard for the last week.
It all started last week when the girls decided to spread bird seed all over the yard to feed the birds. This was before I knew what they were doing...so hopefully we don't have stuff growing everywhere later on. Well, that night the ducks appeared and the girls were so proud because they attracted them to the yard.
Now I have been obsessed with keeping watch of the ducks and kind of hoping that they will actually place their nest nearby so we can see the ducklings. But, we really don't have any water around so I am not sure if they will nest here or not. They are enjoying a diet of bird seed from our house and from the neighbors.
Today they were drinking the water at the edge of the driveway (which is usually there all summer unless it is blistering hot), that slimy water now has a purpose.
