More orphans?


I startled four (three shown here) very young ducks this morning who had been feeding in a patch of duckweed. There was no parent in sight, so it appears they are on their own. I hope their mother didn't fall prey to one of the owls. I think they are black ducks, although it's difficult (for me anyway) to identify them conclusively at this age.
