Cute factor goes to 11

Better viewed Larger

You can read the Exif data for this picture, but it doesn't tell us an important part of the story ... the cuteness setting on my camera goes up to 11 - which is a setting that facilitates the taking of pictures of cute, fluffy ducklings .. among other things.

Aww look at this, a mother duck and her little ducklings.

It seems a little early, but only confirms the suspicions of yesterday that spring is on its way.

In French the duck is called un canard colvert - the male is a canard and the female is called une cane - the ducklings are called canetons.
