Those damn ducks bit me!

After dinner, I took the kids for a walk and we stopped by this big pond to feed the ducks. I brought a ton of stale bread, When we got there, I noticed alot of stupid seagulls who were annoyingly loud. We sat down in the grass near the ducks and then all hell broke loose. Simon almost lost his mind because between the ducks and seagulls who flocked over to us, there must have been about 100 of them in total. And they sure as hell weren't shy. I made the kids stand up at one point because the ducks were getting too close and the kids were starting to freak out. The ducks were practically jumping in our laps and they kept nipping at my knees and feet if I didn't feed them fast enough. It was crazy.

Here are some photos of the ducks that were all around us. I had a hard time taking any photos because that meant I wasn't feeding them and that made them angry.



that's my knee and that's how close those friggin ducks were. I believe I got nipped on the knee soon after this photo was taken by that little asshole staring at my knee.


After feeding the ducks, we went to play at the park and took some photos on the walk home.

  1. You are balls-y I hate ducks and well birds of any kind. I think it's near a full on phobia! Just reading this gave me a mini panic attack :)

  2. I have fed the ducks at that pond before (this was our first time this year) and they have never been that freaking bold. I had to keep waving my foot at them to keep them from getting into my lap and stealing the bag of bread. By the end of it all, I couldn't wait to leave. Annoying as all hell.

  3. You look like FOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDD. A tasty treat! Good enough to eat!!!

    I love that smile of Simon's. Eek! They look like they're having a good summer. The kids, not the ducks.
