things I'm loving

mumma goose


The constant inflow of nature in our backyard.  All the animals seem twitter-pated right now and we are in the midst of it all, there are babies everywhere!!

I think one of the loveliest aspects of being an observer is being able to witness the growth cycle.  It's so quickly in nature.  Of course it has to be, it's a matter of survival.  The small wee goslings and ducklings must grow so they can be ready to take flight in another 5 months.   We've already noticed that our goslings are now resembling teenagers.  They have more winglike projections and have begun to sprout up taller.  Their baby fur is changing slightly to what looks to be feathers and they even got that awkward thing going on.

As for the ducks, the latest new arrivals on the scene are the ducklings.  Oh my these little guys are so cute.  Shh, don't tell the B-meister, but this mumma thinks they may be even cuter than the goslings.  Or maybe it's just that they are so tiny and completely adorable.

I mentioned to the hubby how nice it would be if we could make a duck house near the water for the birds.  In keeping with Field of Dreams, "if you build it they will come".  I think that would rock this girl's world completely.

Full circle right?  After all, this is the ducky house.  :)
