A badelynge of Ducks

[supernova1965 (Warren)]

This lot dropped in for a visit this morning when we first saw them they were sitting in one group in a perfect triangle formation

I was crawling along the ground in stealth mode (which is hardly stealthy considering my stomach) to get this close now I have to wait till I can move again might take a while

[renormalised (Carl)]

Great piccies, Warren!!!

You know, you're trying to be stealthy and they most likely already know you're there...."Hey guys, who's this joker thinking he can crawl upto us and not be noticed...thinks he's a cat. Couldn't hide or stalk for nuts!!!!. Let's make out we don't know he's there and just carry on like normal....whatya reckon??!!!"

I think that is exactly what they were thinking too

It must be the tropical air.

How close did you get Warren?
Did you use a telephoto lens?

As per renormalised's comments.
Your prey seem to be struggling to hold back the laughter.

I got about 20 feet from them I have a 18 mm to 135 mm zoom lens. Yeah they did look like they were amused

20 feet is very close, they obviously didn't see you as a threat.

I suspect that this is a hoax, and in reality they'r your pets that you have tamed.

No hoax I think that they were just paralysed by the sight of me trying to army crawl along the ground.

[richardda1st (Richard)]

I think you are right Warren. That seems to be a credible answer.
Cheers

I especially like the 3 in the 6th picture - what a great pose!

I have to agree they were my favourite too

A bit of ducky politics methinks.
