My friend Kayla and her daughter Brinley are the perfecy playmates. Kayla had the great idea of taking the kids to feed ducks at the park by Lone Peak. Boston was so excited....until
Duh-duh-done
These apparently STARVING ducks got a little TOO close. Then things went from happy to almost terrifying.
We ended up having to hold Boston and Brinley while feeding the ducks because, let's be honest, when a duck as big as you are comes right up to you and grabs the bread out of your hand you'd freak out a little too.
It doesn't take a detective to notice that he's trying to run away from me in the pictures. He did not want the ducks behind him where he couldn't see what they were doing.
So we decided to take a stroll around the lake and throw some rocks into the water...but the ducks followed us.
That's where we met this little guy. He was the odd man out, maybe that's why we liked him.
Then There was the rebellious one with the side ways mo-hawk.There's one in every flock right?
Boston wasn't a fan, so he got as far away from the ducks as he could.
We strolled over to the dock, where the ducks still followed us, but they were in the water, and couldn't get to where we were, so the kids were happy. The loved throwing rocks in the water. The ducks still thought it was food and would dive for the rocks. Poor things.
Boston even took the following pictures with a little help from me to steady the camera. I was surprised that he actually got anything.
Then we finished our little adventure by sitting on the beach for a minute and throwing rocks in the water. Only one little duck followed us over there. We were all out of bread and felt kind of bad. Once he realized that he left and Boston was brave again.
And baby Maddie slept threw it all.
THE END
