photos and videos by Kate Dins

The ducklings near the entrance to South Main have hatched, and Rosie the Duck successfully escorted them to the lovely duck pond on the grounds of Willamette View, the community just to the north of Rose Villa. The pond is west of the main Willamette View buildings, between the buildings and the river. Kate provided a couple of videos of  the ducklings and Rosie swimming in the pond. I’m also including a portrait of a newly hatched duckling in the next. You can view the videos

and here is a photo of a newly-hatched duckling (not sure who took it), before the migration with a couple of photos of them in their new home.

Here is a video link from Susie Wilkins of Rosie on the nest with the babies: https://youtu.be/0TsSXgynhR0
