I take a late afternoon walk now when I can and I usually end up at the little pond near my house.
This week, it’s been like the wild kingdom!
All of these pics were taken one afternoon.
The wood ducks have been on the pond all week.
Eileen called these Mergansers and I had thought at first that’s what they were but someone else at the pond called them wood ducks. What do you think?
I always stand under some trees to take photos and the trees were ‘wild’ too!
Squirrels AND woodpeckers…
oh my!
And how do you like these Mottled Ducks?
And I think this is a Little Blue Heron.
What do you mean the ducks splashed you!
Shake it off!
HEY…Wait for ME!!!
I’m joining Saturday’s critters HERE
and I’d Rather B Birdin’.
