As we walked in Hagley Park this morning a duck and three ducklings scuttled across our path.
It seems early for these babies to be out and about. I hope they’re tucked up warm and snug on frosty nights.
“The ducklings must be here to bring
an inkling of the coming spring.”
That is early. They must be hardy. It’s encouraging to see the first signs of new life.

Temperatures in May and June were slightly higher than average, but I think that’s being compensated for in July . Brrr!

Maybe they got the timing wrong……new life is always a delight to see

I read today about another flock of six ducklings, so there must be quite a few about.
