Eight Mallard Ducklings take a swim in the pond at the Fleetwood Park. I’m hoping that there are more ducklings in the area since only three hens were hanging around and there is normally a steady population of around 28 hens at the park. At this point in the year, the drakes are very aggressive and don’t seem to want to let go of the fact that mating season has passed. This drives away a lot of the hens and their offspring until mid-May when everything seems to settle down again.
