Mother Duck & Ducklings at The American Indian Museum

Nothing creates a crowd more than a mom and her babies. In this case, the mom, dad, and many ducklings in the pool just in front of the American Indian Museum did just that. The youngsters especially enjoyed the frolicking bunch. It was such a brilliant day, the water sparkled and the ducks seemed to enjoy all the attention. We used to go to the bakery and get the stale bread and take it to the pond to feed the ducks in Connecticut and Florida. Just about everyone in my family likes animals and feathered creatures. So it's always nice to see how much enjoyment they bring to kids of all ages and nationalities. What I find somewhat humorous are the foreign travelers who are totally enamored by the squirrels and stop to take photos of them. We are so used to seeing them all over the place, but they are a unique item for a lot of folks. And the best part is is that they are not in a cage and free to roam about. It's the little things that mean the most.
A beautiful afternoon

They caught his attention

And the attention of a few more
