Duck Taxi

May 31, 2016  •  Leave a Comment

Sometimes you just need a rest. This Common Merganser mom and her closely guarded chicks take a morning cruise on a local reservoir here in North Central Massachusetts. All baby ducks are cute but these are one of my favorites. Last summer one mother had adopted another mothers offspring due to abandonment or a tragedy and she was seen with 40 babies. I photographed and counted them. What a sight!
