The babies have gotten big. They aren’t able to fly yet, and are still all fuzzy and cute.

Ducklings

Nick and I ate dinner outside on campus, and were immediate beset on all sides by ravenous and horribly spoiled ducks.

Ducklings

And I do mean beset. And all sides. They snuck up from behind, one ran across my feet, another tried to make off with half a sandwich. Ducklings will eat potato salad, but they do not like tomatoes. If another duckling looks interested, then even a tomato will disappear, eventually.

Good thing they’re cute.

    “Ravenous” I do not believe.

    “Horribly spoiled” I do. ;)

Welcome!

I’ve been doing stuff with string for quite some time, and describing it to others online since 1996 or so at Phiala’s String Page.

I also do some science and write some fiction.

I’m Phiala most places on the internet.
