Six Wee Fluff-balls.

After a quick shopping trip to re-stock the fridge, MaggieD and I arrived at Stirling University. We had a stroll around to see how the swans were doing and were delighted to find this little clutch (?) of six cute ducklings. There were a couple of scary moments when a crazy coot (is there any other kind?) stalked and attacked the mother duck and had ducklings scattering everywhere. Fortunately they were all fine and re-grouped quickly. Mrs Duck called the little ones in close and kept them quite deep in the lochside reeds where they are safest.
We left them to it before we got too stressed out!
