Picture of the Day for June 5, 2018

As I approached the pond today while mowing, I noticed some baby ducks scooting across the water and I thought the wood ducks had hatched. So I grabbed my camera but by the time I came back, they were gone so I started mowing again. Eventually I saw them heading down the path to the area I hadn’t mowed yet. After a closer look, I discovered it was the mallard and her babies and not the wood ducks yet.

Picture of the Day for June 15, 2015

When I was traveling on some remote roads in the Chequamegon National Forest, I came across some large moving tennis balls. Or at first glance that is what they appeared to be until the three “balls” piled on top of each other. When my vehicle got closer, one went up the ditch bank into the woods and the other two re-piled to hide and stayed as still as possible so I wouldn’t notice them on the edge of the road.

I didn’t see mommy duck or any water nearby, so hopefully the family of ducks got back together after I drove pass them.
