An Evening Stroll

The hubs and I were out for an evening drive on April 21st,
looking for anything I could take pictures of.
We stumbled upon these two ducks,
they were out for an evening stroll.


They are Harry's pets.
I met Harry, he was outside doing some yard work,
as I photographed these beautiful ducks.
They were his sons pets.
Said son went to college, moved out and left the ducks behind.
Harry was not thrilled.
He reluctantly kept them, he feeds and cares for them!!


Talk about cute little duck tails!!

    The curl of their tail feathers is cute! A shame they aren't dearly loved.

    My daughter had ducks as pets one time and let me tell you, we will NEVER do that again. They are beautiful creatures but definitely not ideal pets in my opinion.

    They're sure cute! I wish we had a pair on our pond, but the fox and other varmints would chase them away...or worse.
