Donald & Daisy have Baby's
Donald & Daisy are pround to announce they are Parents to two ducklings born over night, with another nine eggs in the nest. Daisy is brooding the Ducklings, and incubating the other eggs. This is a shot of Daisy on her nest in one of the outbuildings on the Farm where we live. Unfortnately it's not very clear, as its only a small digital camera at maximum zoom as we dont want to disturb her, as she's understandably very defensive at the moment

Ducklings 1st Trip Outside
I was seeing Mrs S off to work this morning about 7-40am she had just gone round the corner after saying keep an eye out for Donald & Daisy, and the Ducklings they might bring them out today. I shut the door looked out the window, and there they were toddeling down to the pond, and I'd still got my dressing gown on . I dashed into the airing cupboard did a quick twirl, and grabbing my camera on the way burst out of the front door like Superman. Well perhaps with not as much hair, and a little bit more weight, but at least the underpants were on the inside
I got some pics, as before they are not great because of working on full zoom so as not to disturb them to much especialy as it was their first venture into the big wide world
Sorry got carried away with the Pics
Daisy was showing them what to eat, and where to find it. They were foraging away straight off. Then Donald took over so Daisy could have a bit of peace on her own.
I've got some Videos to upload, but because my connection is so slow it takes ages, about 20 mins for a 1 min Video . So they will be on later.

Hope you didn't get too dizzy on your twirling Superman what utterly gorgeous photos and wonderful videos, they are adorable WS, I mean Superman :) I bet D&D are so proud of them, they can certainly move though cant they, mum only has to sqawk and they were off hot on her heels, so funny. It's going to be magic to be able to see them grow up, they really make me want to have ducks. Thats really made me smile this evening, thanks alot Superman....AKA WS

Re: Donald & Daisy have Baby's
No I'm not dizzy LW although watching these Ducklings I could be you cant believe they are only a couple of days old the way they wizz around on the water, and I've still got my tights on Lia the winds rather chilly
I'm working the next couple of days so I wont get much of a chance to do any more pics or vids till Monday Donald & Daisy fetch the Ducklings out for about 1/2 Hour then they take them back to bed for a snooze, so we dont see them all the time

Re: Donald & Daisy have Baby's
Ooooo What big feet you've got Look at the two little Ducks on the rock towards the end of the Video. I thought to myself these little ones are just over a day old, and yet they are wizzing round the pond. That bit of the clip tells you why

Re: Donald & Daisy have Baby's
Wow, what gorgeous videos!! Those little ducklings certainly no how to move!! The speed they followed Daisy (?) on land in one of the first clips had me giggling!! And they are equally as quick in the water!!
Please, lots more!! They are just so adorable!!

Re: Donald & Daisy have Baby's
Your right AM they are like lightning When Mrs S saw the video of them following Daisy on the concrete she thought I was fast forwarding it they were going so fast it reminded her of the Benny Hill chase scenes When that was taken two of the Ducklings were 48 Hrs old, and the otheres were only 24 Hrs old. Another Video coming later today

Re: Donald & Daisy have Baby's
Daisy tells one of the Kids off, and the others play chase me with Donald
and that was me having a chuckle as they ran down the bank into the water
