Field Notes

Description:

A mother mallard duck and her 9 young were found wandering around our backyard. They were nesting in the pond just on the other side of the fence.

Notes:

We have many mallard ducks use the pond on the west side of our house during migration and for nesting. This mom and her young found their way through our fence.
