Well look who showed up on our driveway last week. Cute duck but husband M shooed him away, we don't want them settling in our yard anywhere! It is nesting season. We don't usually see them this far from the local pond. Mind you, husband M saw geese settled in the planters at the grocery store not too far away. Their habitat is threatened by all the construction of new housing over the years.

That duck looks so cute waddling around
We see the ducks in strange places now. I hope it doesn't make a nest there.
Oh, my! Yes, not of nature is thriving in our burbs too! Lots of deer we have. It is hard to garden here.
The birds you have to watch out for. They are finding some unique places to nest. Thanks for the Monday post!
great shot...
they come to our areas too...
So cute but a nuisance!
Some critters are able to adapt to some extent with urbanization. Others just disappear.
Think they poop a lot?
Driving through one of our local business parks the other day, I spotted a Canadian Goose mother with her goslings. Yes, there are ponds in that area and lots of trees, but still, this was quite the delightful surprise!
So pretty!
That makes a very nice photo with the patterned driveway. Love that!
That's very hard for the water foul, poor things! Hugs!
This duck does look cute but I can get why you don't want it to settle there. It's sad that they have to leave the pond and look for new places to settle.
We've wood ducks nesting on our pond now! It's the right place to be, though.
The poor little duck just needs a good home. I hope she finds it.
Lets hope it finds a safe place to set up a nest.
All the best Jan
Pobre pato. Te mando un beso.
Great photo. Nesting coming up.
Awww...what a cutie. I feel bad for all the displaced critters.
We get rock binds near us. They hid their eggs in rocks.
My neighborhood is filled with Canadian geese. When they first arrived about 15 years ago, people thought they were SO CUTE, they fed them. Why migrate when you have water and lots of free food. No wonder they stayed. If someone fed me, I would be a very happy camper. I know that's how the geese feel!!
such a cute guest :)
few pair visit us in spring for nestling and sometimes are disturbed by our visit close to them such as garden area .
We used to get bunnies nesting in our yard when we lived in Chicago. Once they nested right outside our front door and my kids kept watching the little baby bunnies. And then one day... a cat got to them. I won't describe what my kids saw. It really shook them up.
