Ducks
Since we are so close to St. Olaf College, it’s common to have people stop in who are from different parts of the country because parents come for visits all the time. Yesterday, however, we had 3 visitors who flew in to shop.
The guys and the little lady browsed all day. (Click on any thumbnail to see a larger view of the photo from our Spring 04 photo gallery.)
They shopped for pansies……..
They checked out the lilacs which are gorgeous now that they’re in bloom…………..
They thought the roses were beautiful except they didn’t like the thorns………
After their flight into the nursery and the “miles” they put on shopping, they strolled over under the trees and took a nap.
Each year at the nursery we have a variety of wildlife from the butterflys, ducks, baby bunnies, turtles, snakes, homing pigeons and the list goes on. The female duck has made a nest here at the nursery. We’re hoping that we’ll have the opportunity to see the little ones hatch. In previous years, the predators have gotten into the duck’s nest. Let’s hope for better news this year. Stay tuned for future updates.
