Nielson's Grove Park

Last Thursday, the 6th, we went to Nielson's Grove Park for a little bit before Xander had to go to school.  It was a really windy day, so we had to bundle up in our jackets. We made sure to take a little bit of bread with us for the ducks.
Pat found a duck that was camped out under a large rock. She was sitting on a nest of eggs!! She even ate from Pats hand, it was cool!
There was even a bird that would eat from your hand too!
I was trying to get a snapshot of Mara, but she noticed the camera and made this pose!
Oh how I love her!
We even saw a Mommy Duck with her ducklings out in the pond. They were so cute and fluffy!
Pat noticed a bunch of ducks by some bushes, so he and Xander went to investigate.  They found 4 nests, but only 2 had ducks on them.
This nest had 12 eggs!!!  So crazy!
It's such hard work having babies!
I love this pic!
I think this duck had too many eggs to sit on so they were coming out the sides!
Aww, spring!  It's always fun to see baby animals :)
