Walked out the door
and I did see
a mother duck
and 19 ducklings
as plain
as could be!
But one thing
I am sure of
oh woe is me
is that
in a couple
of days
there may be
just three!

Love the ducklings and sad what will happen I fear!

Hi Dad, Great post! This reminds me of the ducks in our neighborhood. There was a family at the beginning of the pandemic. The baby ducks went from 10 to 7, and then 6, and then 5. Now there are 4. 😦

Right! I saw an eel fish in the pond behind our condo. A mother duck had six ducklings one day then one a couple days later and then none I did see. Eel fish love to gulp down ducklings so swimming in the pond was bad you see.

Some also run over by cars. I have seen that. For some reason the mother duck likes to cross roads: traffic be damned!

Yes, I think the ducks got a break during the pandemic. They need to be more aware since more cars are on the road.

An unaware duck is the typical dead duck!
