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!!

What a wonderful image this is, Rookery !!! I love it. The same problem here with dogs.
 
A beautiful capture. The food chain is strict but domesticated animals/pets should/shall not harm wildlife. Sorry for the many fraction slashes.
 
Hi Dick, its a true saying, "there are no bad dogs only bad owners"
