Mergansers often take on baby-sitting chores for other mergansers, increasing the size of the young flock they are caring for.
That was the case this morning, as Mrs. Merganser came along the shoreline. It took her some time to get all those unruly 'kids' to toe the line...
But she succeeded! Talk about getting all your ducks in a row!
How big is this flock? Well, she has 23 ducklings in a neat line behind her.
We know. Taffy helped to count them.
