Ducknically, We Can Call It Spring

Enter Maude and Claude, a cute little mallard couple that waddles across our driveway, like they do every year, and invited themselves to be our pond Airbnb guests. We aren’t that great with uninvited boarders, but we love to see this couple flap in and make an uncoordinated landing near our back porch. Really though, they stop because they like our company. They are part of our family, our people.
