Ducks

The daycare I work at is right in the industrial area where all the factories are. I think as a ploy to make it look nicer they put a pond there and what do ponds attract? Ducks. Geese. And therefore children who want to feed them. These ducks are ridiculously well trained. During my breaks I'll go out by the pond and read or sleep (depending on the kind of day it's been). Before I've even come to a full stop, they are already surrounding my car! It's crazy!

The ducks swarming (Yes...they did swarm)


I do feel a little bit bad though. I don't intentionally trick them, but it is kind of funny to see them get all excited and "Quack" and then waddle away, heads lowered, when I don't get out and feed them, and nothing comes out of my windows that they can snack on. (Is that cruel of me?) It makes me feel like Gru from Despicable Me when he makes the balloon animal for the little boy...



...And then pops it. Terrible I know.



No worries though! I don't do that to the kids at the daycare...that would just be mean!
