April 24th 2 More Eggs!!!!!
It's been several days and I haven't seen the ducks or any new eggs so I thought that maybe they were abandoned but I went out and checked on the nest and found two more eggs in it. It's kind of hard to see all of them and I don't want to disturb the nest but here they are! I saw our neighbor girls on Sunday and they told me that the ducks were sleeping in their backyard that morning. I've also done some research on ducks on the internet and I learned that they should lay between 8 and 13 eggs, usually one per day. Then when all of the eggs are laid the mother comes and sits on them for 28 days. And then they hatch. We'll see what happens.

What fun to watch nature in action. You get a front row seat for something mere mortals don't get to witness. I am glad you are chronicaling this for us. I hope to see pics of baby ducklings.
