Sorry about the double picture. Momma is keeping an eye on these little guys. They are walking all around the backyard. I hope a vulture or something else doesn't get them!!!

Hi @tends2dogs what a cute picture and welcome back to Florida!! Don't worry,

I see this all the time and the little chicks run right under mom's belly for safety when danger lurks. She's watching!

@tends2dogs Very sweet. I live in the northern burbs of Chicago and feed several duck families, and singles, every summer. We put out cracked corn and other things for them to eat. It's so sweet seeing the babies arrive later in the summer and how big they eventually get. My fingers are always crossed that the same number of baby ducks that start out also end up the summer too.

ENJOY them.
