Snoozing duck and ducklings

See it larger.

A family of ducks settled in for a snooze on the northern shore of Jamaica Pond yesterday afternoon (dad was equally asleep, a foot or two away).

I'm following a goose family in Milton. 2 adults, a juvenile and 5 goslings. So far all I've suffered from is menacing hissing as I walk by.

Where's the TLF when you need them?

My apartment building deployed plastic coyotes with realistic fur tails in strategic locations around the building and the goose family has fled the vicinity.

I have a felling that I'm not the only one the adult geese have meanicingly hissed at.

One thing I won't miss is the Goose feces everywhere. So at least I got that.

And the original family has brought reinforcements! Another adult has joined the gaggle.
