Feeding the ducks




We went to the river today and fed the ducks! It was a lot of fun. Kaytlin and Gracie both love to feed the ducks. There is never a dull moment when we do, they really get into it. Gracie is really good at throwing a whole piece of bread and if the ducks don't come and get it then she tries to chase them! Kaytlin does not like to be bothered when she is feeding the ducks. She talks to them and even tries to feed them out offer hand like "Mommy and Daddy" but she always gets scared at the last minute. Gracie thinks it is really funny when they eat out of your hand, it does not bother her at all.
Today the ducks were really aggressive. Especially in the water. There were these to little ducks that did not want to share with each other. At one point one of the ducks and the other duck by the backside and held on for a good two minutes. I felt bad for the little guy, he kept putting his bottom into the water after the other one let go. Maybe it made it feel better, I am not sure but it was funny to watch.
