Today’s highlight of the trip to the beach for a dog walk: a duck crossing the road followed by 8 or 10 tiny tiny ducklings. No photo — they were too far for my iPhone and I didn’t want to risk scaring them by moving.

@dejus I was worried: they crossed at a T-intersection and the mother duck flew off to the lake a few metres away, leaving the babies. Luckily the babies all stayed together and headed in the right direction (along the road then turn right onto the grass).

That would be concerning. Maybe they could hear her. I'm confident she would have returned if they didn't follow.
