Photo Essay

Mom's work is never done

Family Relaxing

On our weekly visit to Twin Lakes in Greensburg, PA, we spotted a mother duck and her 5 babies.

She let me get within 5 feet of her to take photos, actually didn't seem to mind at all. She was "showing" them off.

They were resting beside her for a while, then started stirring around, so we left them alone, until a short time later....

We found them swimming around the edge of the lake, feeding and swimming.

The little duckings were funny to watch as they were diving in the water after watching the mom!

At one point three were really paying close attention to her.

After feeding, playing and some learning, they headed "home".
