Cute Ducklings on Leeds to Liverpool Canal - Saltaire

Mallard Ducklings leeds liverpool canal

This photo was the only frame I managed to get all 10 ducklings in one shot. Their mother had flown off and all of them were giving off frantic cheeps. These are the first ducklings I have yet seen this year on the Leeds - Liverpool canal around Saltaire. Their mother came back around 5 minutes later, good news all round.

  2. Makes me think of the ugly duckling song. The mother duck has quite a brood!

  3. They did a good job of stirring up the water! Cute little critters.
