What we plan on teaching our kids
A few nights ago we were out for a stroll around the lake. We were on one of the boardwalks over the water when Razor started throwing a fit. There were a couple familes of ducks with about 10 ducklings in the water beside the walk. I told Razor to stop barking at them because she was scaring the babies. Marty said it was OK because it was the "ugly ducks"* that she was barking at.

'Em are uuuugg-ly!
When I was there, I kinda wanted to bark at the ugly ducks too. Are they that ugly when they're ducklings? I don't remember seeing any little ones.

I don't know if they are that ugly when they are ducklings because it was dark enough that I could see that there were ducklings, but I couldn't see if they were ugly or not. I hadn't seen any little ones of these guys either until the other night. Maybe they just have their babies much later in the season than the other ducks and geese.
