There were two families. One with 10 ducklings the other with about five.

Thanks Alice. Good Info.

In Florida, it is past time, because they can begin in February here. But further North it would be the right time. Families are not usually any bigger than 8 but I believe she has 10.

She must have big eye on you. watching you might try to steal her one cub... Very cute family.. Alice is this Breeding season of Mallards?. Currently I am seeing many Mallard ducklings in spotting daily..
