Mallardling Surfing

More amazing a brood (and little surfer) in large.

I've just back blipped pictures for the last week.
Monday: Whitby - Midwife Toads in Pannett Park
Tuesday: Whitby Harbour - West Pier Extensions
Wednesday: Whitby Abbey
Thursday: Robin Hood's Bay
Friday: Whitby Museum
Saturday: Maturing Goosles

It has been lovely to see the Goosles since returning from Whitby... I was going to blip another Goosle pic. today, but then spotted this mother mallard with 17 tiny mallardlings (16 visible here...)! They are absolutely minuscule, and look like a little swarm of bees following her around on the boating pond.

Goosles photos are right from here.
