You haven't lived until you've held a duckling in your hands!!!

Mama wasn't interested in letting me get anywhere near that close. The only reason she came as close as she did was because I was in the shade and didn't move, and she wasn't quite sure what I was.

So what do they feel like?

You've really never held a duckling?

Holding a duckling is like holding a wish, a dream, but it's alive and real. There's almost no weight, just a feeling so soft and gentle it's like your first kiss or the caress of a summer breeze on your face.
It's like having tenderness itself resting in your palm.

It's a simple thing but I highly recommend it if the opportunity ever arises.

Beautiful little duck family and all the kids look so much like Mama!
