The last two remaining young ducks that hang out at the pond by a housing addition just down the road from me. You can see an earlier shot of them Here This is also home to Dapper Duck who is one of the adults. The family that lives in the house close to the pond has been enjoying them so much and to their dismay there are only two left out of the orginal nine. We think perhaps a large snapping turtle might also share this pond. We all hope that these two will at least make it. All wild animals are so prone to predators and are lucky to make it to adulthood. I did do a little cloning on that blade of grass in front of the one cuties face. I decided to leave most of it in the pic. Used the sigma zoom once again. sandi♥
