Baby Ducks

Saturday we headed to Gretchen’s house to enjoy crawfish and good company. They have this huge pond right across the street from her house and one of the Mama ducks had babies a couple of weeks ago. Trace being the animal lover that he is thought it was so exciting to feed the ducks. Big Brother got bit over Christmas break so he steered clear of the ducks (no matter how cute/small they were)

Trace was kind of unsure at first

Then he jumped right in. He kept throwing the potato chips. These poor ducks are going to have a weight problem!

He tried to share his banana with the babies, but they preferred the chips

We were able to distract the Mama duck so I could grab one of the babies. Trace was trying to close his beak with his hands.
