Ducklings on Blairmount Pond

Very early September and there's some late summer arrivals on Blairmount Pond.
They've settled by the pond dipping platform.









 
I took the photos and videos yesterday Tuesday the 3rd of September. I had to chase a cat stalking in the banks long grass.
This Wednesday evening all seven are surviving and are voracious eaters.
They'll soon get fat with the folk around here feeding them.
I hope they survive

  1. Absolutely gorgeous and delightful! I love this! Thank you so much for sharing. As far as the video I posted yesterday on my blog, it WAS the Just for Laughs Gags. Just for Laughs are a group that work here in Montreal, and they are sensational.

  2. Very cute indeed. Not an ugly duckling amongst them.

  5. Hopefully it will stay warm through autumn and will not be too hard a winter for them. Fingers crossed.
    Most of my pond tadpoles and small frogs will probably end up inside ducks:)
