Grey Teal Ducklings (Anas gracilis)

It was a real surprise to see so many of them. They all disappeared when someone's loose dog took to the lagoon chasing ducks. Unfortunately for the dog owners there was a policeman in the car park and they got a real telling off!!

Cracking group shot of these youngsters Dick. Glad the dog owners got there just deserts.

Aaaaw.... they're gorgeous Dick. What a wonderful brood they've had.

I hope those dog owners have learnt their lesson then.

Another very lovely capture of these super cuties, Dick ... great work ... tfs ...
 
Should have been a stiff fine Dick. Have the same problem here in areas where dogs are not supposed to be off leash. Think it's not a vote winner for the Council.
