Tufted Ducklings


The female duck has not been seen for the last week or so. The ducklings stick fairly closely together just as they did when under parental control. I have no idea whether this is normal and the ducklings are at the stage of being left to get on with it or whether something has happened to the parent. They certainly have grown significantly since they appeared but they are not as old as mallards that are still with mum.
