EGGS!!!!



A mother duck, from the nearby lake laid about 30 eggs inside this tree trunk.  She'd taken a little break from egg sitting so we could get a closer look.  The security guard told me that the first one was blue and all the rest white, although they all appear bluish in my photos.

I spotted those cute little guys from yesterday's post and asked if they had seen the eggs. They were so excited to see them.

I would never have (had/I never know which one to use :-) guessed!
How lovely!

Oh my, 30 eggs! Would she be able to hold them all together when the ducklings have come out of the eggs?

How exciting to find (and show) a duck's nest!! And it is softened with down! I wish the mom success.

Quite a spot for a nest!

I think that single sentence is a like in a Monty Python sketch.

But, hey! Remember color temperature!
