Spring is Here

The Mallards are back! Bella and I were in the back yard when we heard quacking and there on the roof sat Mr. and Mrs. Mallard. (Believe me, seeing ducks on a roof is an odd sight! Their feet aren't built for that platform.)

I put Bellie inside and snapped some pictures (one much better than the other), as they strolled our backyard. Unfortunately our yard doesn't provide good nesting sites with only a water bowl and a dog to contend with. They ate some slugs, drank some water and moved on. Sigh.
