A few of Daphne’s brood, now starting to look like big ducks but still with some spiky down. Their little wings, however, are fully feathered. All the ducks are doing well, plump and lively.

You’re establishing a helluva record this year for bringing ducklings to fledge, boss — a personal best that’s gonna be hard to beat.
Hi Doc ,saw the joke below on the Guardian’s comment page ,you might find it in poor taste .
How do you turn a duck into a famous soul singer. Put the duck in the microwave until its bill whithers…
.
I used that one some months ago. To be honest, I had to Wiki to check out what category of singer Bill Whithers is (or was), and I’ve forgotten already.
Word seems to have spread about the great chow available at the PCC buffet. Imagine how many ducklings will be fledged next year!
They can’t be teenagers; they aren’t looking at their phones.
🙂 yes! headphones in, eyes down…
… bills going up.
Don’t teenagers get phone bills?
I want to kiss their duck faces. 🦆
Mwah!
Mwah!
Same here. And the nyala that Dr. Rob just shared.
Ahh, they sure are purty.
