Here are some more of Natures Mama's that we just love having in our own back yard!
Canadian Geese goslings
Cardinal hatchlings just Yesterday!

There is even one Canadian Goose family who have adopted a little homeless gosling that is smaller than their own. At first the Mother and Father chased it away from their goslings as is natural. But today they came with their 4 large babies and the little homeless one was right with them. Nature is so amazing! I will have to catch them on film perhaps tomorrow.
MAY YOU ALL HAVE THE MOST WONDERFUL MOTHER'S DAY!

When do Cardinals change to their magnificent color? I know females are a rust color, but the males are so brilliant red. We have a lot of them here, as you know, but I've never witnessed a hatchling in a nest, not even seen a nest.
I love your photos of all the birds and especially the little, fluffy ducklings following mom right in a row...how cute! We never did get any here. Mom got tired of sitting on her eggs. Don't know what happened there - maybe there was no male to fertilize the eggs because there sure were a lot of eggs - several times, but maybe the people kept chasing her off and she finally gave up. She needs to find a more secluded spot next time, not right at the side of the road where everyone disturbs them.
Happy Mother's Day to all creatures great and small!
Hi: Beautiful pictures of the birds. They really are too cute. I hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day. Blessings, Martha
