DUCK TRAILS

The ducks that come to feed under our bird feeders are back.  They have been trudging up through the snow to have their fill of the stuff the birds knock off the feeders.  There are two drakes and one hen Mallard that come regularly.  The following are some pictures of their trails.

These trails have been drifted over already.

More of the "traffic" pattern coming to the feeders.

I think these are trails leading back to the river.  They walk both ways unless startled while at the feeders and then they will fly back to the river.

This is a group of Ducks, Geese and Swans sitting on the ice out in the middle of the river.
