When it comes to cheering me up, Hubby is the king!
But then again, I don't think I'm very difficult: A bag of bread each and off to the park.
So many hungry birds!
I guess people prefer to go to the park when it's warm and nice and there are cute babies to feed. Now it's cold outside and they are hungry. It made me feel really bad.
The heron on the right have been here since this summer. I got some awesome pictures some months ago where it used the bread to lure fish in and eating them! Clever boy or girl for sure!
We had both pigeons and ducks when I lived with my parents (And chickens, and a love bird) so I'm always happy to be around them.
I just melt inside when those little jerks try to make eye contact to get me to feed them.
How can you not love that pretty face?
I'm sorry, but I have read that bread is dangeorous treat for ducks :(
ReplyDeleteI've read that too, also that you shouldn't feed them at all because it makes too many animals gather and it makes sickness spread.
DeleteAwe.....soooo cute!! And I've been feeding bread to ducks for years and I don't think it's killed any yet...many do and we have a surplus of these cute faces....
ReplyDeleteThat's how I feel too :) Besides, we had ducks for years and I've seen that ducks will eat everything they can swallow... Literally! If these ducks were trapped somewhere and dependent on what we feed them, I would worry about the bread, but they're free to go anywhere and eat anything they want to, so I don't.
