muchas gracias, mi amiga!

those days are sadly GONE, as the humidity has KILLED my Nikon Digital (wah wah wah!) and mi esposo's camera is DOA too...

so, today when we released all the ducklings from the 3 nurseries, there were NO pix taken to commemorate the occasion, ALAS !!

the nursery is for their safety, so they don't go into the pond too young, before their oil glands can shed the water, and they're FAST enough to get out of the way of a horny drake who wants a date with their mommy, LOL.

but it was totally cool, the largest release we ever had at once, and VERY interesting to see which moms took OVER, and which immediately went off to the pond for a bath, and to the "buffet" for a snack.

duck behaviour sometimes REMINDS me of how people act, lol, lol, lol, lol !!
