Not in front of the children please

I felt sorry for this poor little mallard duck because the drakes were being voyeuristic and even helping the drake with making more ducklings! Her 8 little ducklings were swimming around not knowing what to do. I thought to myself "not in front of the children please!" They must have wondered what on earth was happening.

I walked around Priory today and was going to go to Sainsbury's to do the week's shopping but my foot was hurting so much that I had to stop off at the Village Shop to get some milk and go home. I shall have to do it tomorrow
Duck family sweet

sadistic things aren't they. And they always near drown the female.

@bekimorris Yes at one time she was completely submerged! I wondered how she could breathe poor thing

Good timing - and your color is wonderful. Have watched them in this routine - nature doing its thing I guess though it does look like she could drown! Love your titling.
