Seems we have similar 'back yards'!
We too have ducks...first sign for us that Spring has finally arrived is that the ducks return to the pond (in our backyard). I like to think it's the same two each year. They swim a bit and claim the pond as theirs, they 'court', then mate, then the 'babies' show up.
Our 2cnd year now to witness this ritual.

Aren't they beautiful? And what a wonderful ritual to witness. I'll go back this weekend to see if there are any hatchlings.
