Mama Mallard's Family

Mama Mallard's eggs began hatching late Sunday afternoon.  I was so excited!  I checked on her constantly!  We made sure to get up early Monday, Memorial Day, so we didn't miss her taking her babies to the lake.  Around 6:30 a.m. she proudly paraded her three new, beautiful ducklings to the lake.  My son was the lucky one that assisted the babies over the curb.  He wanted to keep one. :) 
We did video, but for some reason I'm having trouble uploading the video.  It's about 4.5 minutes long, so maybe it's too long??  
As you can see mama was on a mission!  She wasn't easy to keep up with!  Hope you enjoy!

Proud mama making way for her babies.


Kyle helped the little ones over the curb.
Mama did thank him. :)

I'm back!  Now where is Mr Mallard???

This is the babies first swim...awww!

That Sweet Marie and her family were just as nice as the squirrels said they were. :)

Aren't they so cute?!?!
Such a proud mommy!


It was a beautiful experience for us all...
