Quack, Quack, Quack!

Here is a photo of a mother and ten little ducklings.

They do not belong in the rocks, under a bush, by a cement driveway at a home.

The mother and little ones were not near water, which can be very dangerous especially in the Arizona heat.

There are groups like Liberty Wildlife who can help provide animal rescue when this situation occurs. And that is who we called. But some of them ended up in a neighbors fountain until all of the little ducklings could be captured.

Those are ducks out of water. Obviously the ducklings were hatched nearby, but the mother must gave gone astray to make a nest in a desert residential area, rather than around a lake or pond somewhere.

So, cute. I'm glad they were rescued. One day, about a year ago, I was driving down Indian School Road near 16th Street when all of the traffic came to a stop. A duck and all the little ducklings were crossing that busy road to get to over the canal on the other side. I was so happy that all those drivers were of the nature to protect these little ones.
