Over the last month or so, we've had the joy of seeing lots of new families make their home in the park near our house where we walk with Guinness daily.
The park is home to a number of bird species including ducks, geese, coots, swans, magpies, pigeons, seagulls, herons, ruddy ducks and moorhens as well as a number of other funny looking birds which we can't always identify.
It's so much fun watching each family appear and then grow until you can no longer differentiate them from the adults. We're also busy counting the babies to make sure one hasn't gone missing (in a heron's meal) but that can sometimes be a challenge. This year, one pair of geese have 22 goslings!

How sweet! the babies look so soft and fuzzy!
Where was Guinness with all these feathered friends?!
Love, hugs and kisses to you!
Love, Mom
The kids really like "itchy bottom" duck (second pic in the slide show). All of the photos are lovely!
Sorry, goose not duck.
