Leaving work this evening, I found another family of ducklings. Nine in this brood and they were motoring along at quite a pace heading for the new wetlands where the main lake used to be at UQ.
Too fast to get some nice duckling portraits, so these are all "run and gun" as they whizzed past.
On the off chance anyone that follows me knows someone or has been in this situation, my daughter and I rescued a duckling this morning trying to cross a busy main road. We searched both sides where it could have come from, no mom or siblings in sight. I’m striking out on finding any rehabbers who take waterfowl, so if anyone has advice on how to take care of this cutie, if the last place I called won’t take it, I’d appreciate it. Gratuitous pic of a duckling in a cup holder. #duckling#wildlife
