Nature Walks – Just Duckin’ Around

We almost always have Mallards around the lakes. In the spring and summer months, there are more than in the winter months, but there are almost always some around.

Sometimes I see them napping.

Sometimes they just are out walking around.

Sometimes they are swimming.

But right now, they are building and protecting their nests.

Soon, we should have some little “duckalings” too. Years ago, my niece’s daughter called them duckalings, and that just stuck with me. I thought it was such a cute little phrase. So I call them duckalings too now. 🙂
