When do the mallard babies appear? We sport a few pair of mallards up here too, I thought they would have been birthed by now, but I have yet to see any ducklings. And such lush, lush greenery. Gotta love the tropics. To me Texas is tropical!
Oh yeah, could be that they are nesting under that bridge. Tranquil place for them I guess, just like us humans we do want to be in uncrowded places at times. :) Thanks for the visit!
Hey Snap, I just happened to check your blog --since I hadn't heard from you in awhile... Found out that I am no longer following you ---so none of your posts are coming up on my Updater. SORRY--I have no idea how that happened...
Love seeing the Japanese Garden in Hermann Park.
Hope you two are doing okay... I have missed you. Hugs, Betsy
So tranquil to watch a duck family floating by on a summery day. I thought of you last night when I had my cup of tea, Snap. I put the used bag carefully on the teeny tea bag holder (unfortunately not Limoges...).

What a lovely picture -- I love ducks and often we go to our city park with bread in hand to feed them.
