Cute and Cuddly

Each Spring I spend some time photographing ducklings, these are usually Mallards, as being common are easy to find. This year I specifically wanted to get some shots of Canada Geese goslings, although the adults are very common, you don't see a great deal with goslings, not in my part of the world anyway. A local park had a pair that had two very approachable youngsters which I spent a few hours with.
Locally I found a family of Mandarin Ducks that had eight ducklings, this was an unexpected bonus as I had never photographed them before.
