Of course, they're not actually ducklings. They're big, orange, fabulously homely Sandhill crane babies and they like to wander around my back yard. Aren't they adorable? I love spring!!!
You don't want to get too close to them, though, or Daddy will take your eye out with his gigantic beak. These cranes are over 4 feet tall and quite fiesty, even when they're not busy being over-protective parents.

How sweet are these little babies. Life anew begins with Spring. Happy creating...
well thanks so much for this! ducklings are some of my favorite babies... and signets... had never seen baby cranes - sooo cute!
I love seeing these around our neighborhood too.
Lucky you, such cool birds in your garden.
