Mama and two of her babies
I was hoping this duck would move in closer but, sadly, she saw me and slowly swam away.
Isn't she lovely?
I think she's a mallard hybrid but I'm not sure. Can anyone identify her?
I am linking to Saturday Critters HERE.

I love these creatures are cute.
She's a good mother.
The lighter nape and eyebrow strike me as a little unusual, but otherwise she looks very much like a female Mallard.
great closeups
Mama's reflection is very clear on both photos.
I cannot imagine you scaring ducks away...
She is beautiful!
i don't know what a mallard hybrid is?? does that mean she runs more efficently?? hehehe
beautiful images, sometimes it's best to keep a distance as to not upset mom!!!
i like mom's reflection!!!
I especially like the picture of the Mom and little puffball ducklings.

This is the first lesson to her kids.
Keep away from strangers.
Love the reflection that you have captured on this second shot, and how cute to watch moms and babies!
Little ducklings are so cute.
Your blog is amazing.Photos are very great.
Cute babies and mom is a beauty!
Both pictures are gorgeous. The light on the birds is beautiful.
I suspect you're right on the ID, but it's only a guess.
Cute babies and mama swimming among the grasses. Nice reflections too!
I don't know at all but she is a cutie!
A great mother and beautiful photos.
Don't know what breed she is, but she is lovely. Ducks are so fun to watch.
Summer swim.
Yes she is!
She is of the bird genus and the duck species. She's also got a lot of brown and two wee duckies. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
Cute little family.
Wonderful family ! Mom takes care of their young children !
Greetings :)
Lowell is too funny :) you captured a very sweet family moment here EG.. looks like the general consensus is a female mallard.. Why is it that male birds are always more colourful ' that's just not on :)
they're so cute... Lovely photos...
So cute! Wonderful photos!
Aw, who can resist that beautiful scene. Lovely reflections too :D)
She sure is lovely, and those babies are adorable!
Very sweet captures!

She looks like a female Mallard to me. And she looks like a good mama to her sweet little fuzzballs!
