Well yesterday proved to be but one day's respite from the glut of fluffiness. The pond babies were out in force today, and the cooler weather kept most of the human traffic out of sight. So without further preamble…
Sleepy goslings
Paddling gosling
A fluffy duckling
A very bold young moorhen
A passing swallow
Ok, that last one isn't fluffy, but a swallow on the wing has a certain elegance so it creeps in. Two more shots to close tonight…
The sleepy gosling wake up
And an assortment of ducklings
Camera note: all shots taken with the Canon 7D and EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L USM IS lens.

Until now I can take pictures as close no baby ducks.
Next week I have time to try my luck at the lake.

Me too! :awww: And that's even before the foxcubs become more visible (I'm sure you'll find a litter somewhere and add those to the cuteness mix before much longer!)

2 May 2011Adele, I'm really not sure we'll see any cubs this year. It's gone quiet lately so certainly no tiny ones. Maybe once they start roaming at around 3 months.
