Wood Ducks



Larry wanted the wood ducks to raise at his pond.  He built a wood duck house on the bank.  He said it would be better in the water, but he was sick and weak by then and couldn’t build it in the water.  Each year Astrid watches and wood ducks come, but this year is the first they have hatched a brood of babies.  I hope to see them swimming around the pond soon.  They don’t stay in the nest long and are left to take care of themselves when they leave the nest.  A few ducks swimming will make the pond even lovelier.

Oh it will be fun to watch all those babies in the water!
