Ducks!

We have had an incredibly mild winter in Bozeman this year, in that there has been little snow in town.  Generally speaking, the mountains have been getting snow, and hopefully enough to prevent fire season this summer.  The benefit is that we have been able to do some things this winter that are not our usual winter activities. One of these have been going over to the MSU ponds to feed the ducks. I think these guy have significantly fewer visitors in the winter as they came FLOCKING and they were HUNGRY!  Hyat loved it. He loved that the ducks would eat out of his hand and even laughed when they would peck at him.  Embrie was a little less sure about what was going on.  I think because the ducks were nearly eye-to-eye with her, it was a little intense.  She loved feeding them, but wanted to be much closer to me! Because she pretty stayed between my legs it was pretty much impossible to get a picture of her!



This video shows the chaos that ensued! The kids love watching it on my phone and listening to the ducks!
