Esther et al. on the University of Chicago’s Instagram page

June 21, 2025 • 12:15 pm

The link to this “uchicago” Instagram post is here, and this lovely video highlights Esther and her brood, as they are the only brood the renovated pond has harbored. I’m sure this video was taken by the University photographer, who did a great job. I’m also delighted that the video (and thus the University) recognizes the value of the ducks to the pond and to the people who come to the pond to chill out.

Ducks forever!

  1. Lovely little video. Perhaps for our host Jerry, and helpers, more work sometimes rather than tranquility.

  2. Yes, a lovely video. I didn’t realize there were so many blooming plants around Botany Pond.

  3. Love the clips of Esther walking her kids through her pool and gardens. Glad they were able to book the site early, when it opened.
