“I almost wish we were butterflies
and liv'd but three summer days -
three such days with you
I could fill with more delight
than fifty common years
could ever contain.”
John Keats
" Vexed sailors
cursed the rain, for
which poor shepherds
prayed in vain.
Edmund Waller
“When the Sun of compassion
arises darkness evaporates
and the singing birds
come from nowhere.”
Amit Ray
Nature makes her
own arrangements.
These three are
ever seen together,
grooming, drinking,
sleeping [often
on my lawn]
in the shady
afternoon sun.

Love your drakes - and the duck is a charmer too. Feathered enchantment all of them.
They seem to have a nice time together!
Hello, they must love your place and have made it their home now. Cute shots of the three Mallards. Happy Tuesday, enjoy your day!
I love YOU, my three friends!
Cute and cuddly.
the ducks are in a row
That's entirely different!
I did not know that mallards practiced polyandry... Your blog is so educational.
Since John Keats lived in the 17th century, he can take credit for the updated version of his quote. One man's trash is another man's treasure.
Handsome dudes.
What a nice duck family you have, Cloudia!
2 drakes, 3 friends
It is absolutely wonderful Cloudia, your home is their home.. sometimes ☺
Thanks Dears 🎈
