Ducks and Ducklings

Ducks and Ducklings My daughter's residence favoured my luck ! I loved so much, for giving scope to watch seasonal migratory ducks. She stayed beside a lake as such. Slope from ground floor, inclined direct to Lake shore, aqua surface to touch. Up and down little brittle ripples to dance noticed on quick glance. Small waves off and on start propagation along the direction of blowing breeze till the wind-flow to seize. Most of the year ! Nomal happenstance. At Autumn Flocks of ducks reach Lake for temporary stay : all cheerful and gay, continuously quacking at journey break. They build nests and take rest. Purpose to lay eggs and hatch on transit, might regional climate to permit. Breaking shell nestlings appear. Parents also sincere and careful indeed, to protect and feed infant birdies, as their need. They afford scheduled time, till the birdies learn to swim. Completing prime duty, parent birds chose to exit. Young birdies started to grow on their own, as the parent birds are already flown. Self help followed by the ducklings : After all, all are close siblings. Within one month or so, ducklings to grow, turning full fledged young ducks and they are no more stuck. Parent birds returned in flock to take their offsprings. Young ducks flapped their newly-formed strong wings. Full family in flocks soared high, to reach vast wide sky. All flew away in rapture on exciting venture, leaving their sojourn ! Solitary Lake to mourn.
