Nesting

July 2015/L Herlevi
Sitting down to read in the park, the feral duck quacks its bass voice, while behind me a ruckus from the flickers.  Going over for a closer look, I see it's a cavity nest with one baby looking out, and another up on a branch.  Adults nearby.  The one on the branch later decides to go exploring, hopping and struggling along the ground, avoiding people and dogs.  It made its way to the shore, whereupon I lost sight of it, couldn't find it when I finally went to look.
