Feeding the Ducks

One cold January morning we went to feed the very very hungry ducks. Their quacking was out of control, and so loud! It was fun until the end when the white ones were all very aggressive and upset both Gorden and Adelaide. She had a piece of bread in her hand and was tearing off pieces and throwing them and this duck came and took the whole piece from her! She was pretty mad! Then not long after that Gorden got bit by that same duck. He was super upset about that and a little hurt. So that ended that and we called it a morning and left. Its a great little pond/park though. We'll still go back. We may just have to stand up on the park bench to feed them next time.

Wow, those ducks sound like they were pretty pushy that day! Gordon and Adelaide are so cute though!

Fun, fun. I wonder if that white duck is the same one I had a run-in with way back before Sam and I were married...

Feeding ducks in the winter can be a scary prospect. Reminds me of a month or so ago when the ducks swarmed us ... kind of freaky ... glad you all made it out alive! :)
