This is our Mama Mallard. She decided to build a nest and lay her eggs in our front yard flowerbed. We've only seen her off the nest once in the past five days. We are only four houses and a street from the lake. I guess there is less competition for nesting in my yard. :) I will keep all of you updated. Until then, have a ducky day!
We were spraying her with the hose. LOL |
Isn't she pretty! |

Beautiful pictures :) I like the one where she's opening her mouth to the water...how cool.
Have a lovely week!
She is a very beautiful girl. It looks like she was enjoying the cool shower, she even said thank you. It's going to be exciting when the eggs hatch, can't wait to see the photos.
she looks like she is laughing from sheer joy while you were spraying her. great idea. hope you soon see those adorable babies
How awesome is this? WOW ... she I'm sure is quacking her Praise to her creator for giving her such a wonderful home for her babies...these humans are pretty special people...thank you Father, the LORD of Creation! Love your photos this should be an exhilerating experience for all ...even your special visitor
Fun,fun,fun...my baby bluebirds should hatch this week. Nature is the best. These shots are great.
i guess she liked the water! :) such a cute girl!
She is so cute! It will be such fun watching her raise a family there! Is she a single mom or is the papa around the area, too?
Have a nice Monday!
How sweet she is! I can't wait to see more updates on her and her little ducklings. :)
How fun to have her and her nest right there in your front yard. Didn't the spray from the hose scare her off at all? She seems to be enjoying it in the pictures.
I love ALL of your pictures! the ones on this post , the eggs are my favorite. lucky you!
Can't wait to see those baby ducks. How sweet :)

How fun! Wonder how long the wait is for ducks? Chickens are 21 days - I'd imagine it wouldn't be too much different.
Aww, she looks so happy in the shower from the hose! She's a lovely girl!
So cute
Awwww...love her in the water spray.
You certainly have a lot of wild life all around you!
