Not much is cuter than baby geese and ducks. I feel my glucose levels rising just looking at the picture.

What to Say When the Ducks Show Up
I, for one, am going to know what to say when the ducks show up. I’ve made a list of phrases, and although I don’t know which one to use yet, they are all good enough in case they showed up tomorrow. Many people won’t know what to say when the ducks show up, but I will. Maybe I’ll say, “Oh ducks, oh ducks, oh ducks,” or just “ducks, wonderful ducks!” I practice these sayings every day, and even though the ducks haven’t come yet, when they do, I’ll know what to say.

Canadian geese babies are cute but they grow up...we've got way too many resident flocks around and no way to cull them.

Thankfully no " I swear to god I thought baby duckling could fly" moments.
Dumb blonde ducks in Washington.

Kinda like humans.
