Too Cute! The Softer Side of Real Estate!

Earlier this week, I went to check on one of my Hernando Beach waterfront listings and as I walked toward the back of the home, I came across this family scene!

There she was, a proud Mama Duck with thirteen little ducklings all following her toward the water.

Happy Easter Duck with Ducklings

What an unexpected treat! I only had my phone on me to take pictures with and didn't dare to move to get my camera from the car as I didn't want to lose sight of this little family. Some moments are just too precious to let go.

They finally all got to the seawall of the property and on Mama Duck's urging calls, one by one of the little ducklings took the plunge into the water where they gathered under the neighboring dock for a little more quality family time!

Good evening Silvia ... what an absolutely precious picture of mother and babies. This is mother nature at her finest and definitely spells spring. Have a beautiful Easter.

Silvia the ducklings are so small that you can hardly see them in the grass. That is a sight you do not get to see very often.

Oh how cute! I would have loved to see the little ducklings follow mama's call and hop into the water one by one.

Frohe Ostern Silvia!
