      My springtime visitors return. If anyone wonders whether ducks have memories, this is the third year that I’ve had the same mallard ducks raiding my bird feeders. My two somali’s really enjoy their visits. Last year I had 3 mating pairs taking turns & occasionally getting into spats with other males. I guess a sign Spring is here, but we’re due for another snow/ice storm later this week.

        They’re beautiful. Love the mallard’s curly tail feathers!

          They’re cute to watch. I now know where that old saying “shake a tail feather” originated. Think it was a song too. Whenever they move around or get ready to take flight, they shake their heinies! So cute.
