We got some ducklings from mom a week ago. They've already grown so much from these pictures. They attached themselved to Ava pretty quick and followed her all around the house. I think they are going to be pretty tame (as long as they survive the local predators). They aren't allowed in the house anymore because they are getting to be poop machines. lol

Isaac wants to grab them and suck on their heads ... but I told Ava not to place the ducks next to him. The first few days we had them - Ava would take them in her room and "share" her toys with them. Ha ha.

Now they waddle around the yard and are getting more comfortable, secure, and independent. Although they still like to have us in sight when we are outside and follow us. They like to sleep on our porch where they can look through the glass sliding door and see us in the house. I sure like having them around. They are going to be great pest control in my garden and flowers. I can count how many grasshoppers I've fed them. I just wish they would eat potatoe bugs.

The hummingbirds around our house perch on my garden fence and watch the ducks.

Even though the ducks spend most of the day runnin' around outside - they still like to perch on our shoulders and sleep (after nibbling on ears and neck). It'll be fun to watch them grow and to find out if they are female or male...... hmmmm. I'll keep you posted ;)

P.S. Happy Birthday again Hunny B!
