Mama Duck on Wild Bird Wednesday


This mama duck is very busy keeping track of her 15 babies at Lake Ella. They were being chased by a goose when I took this picture. Visit Wild Bird Wednesday to see more fabulous birds from all over the world.

She probably herded the little ones in front of her so she could keep track.
