My two ducks came to meet me at the gate

A photo I took of my ducks this evening 14.04.2026

This evening of 14.04.2026 I happened to get home a little later than usual. It was already nightfall as I entered my gate. To my amazement, I saw two ducks come towards the entrance. When they approached me, they stopped as though to report something to me. I took a photo before they turned to lead the way. They were rather in hurry as I could not keep with their pace. I found them shortly later waiting at the door, quacking in low tones as though expressing their annoyance. I wonder what was going through the birds’ minds. I locked them up and returned to the cyber. There’s some work I have to submit before midnight. I will try to get home earlier tomorrow.

Ducks are naturally humble, geese are the ones you should be scared of

@SIDIKIMPOLE I meant to say scarce not scare. Typo error

Hahahah that's so cute. I think ducks are the only animal that can do everything, can swim, fly, walk everything.

That's interesting that they would meet you at the gate and wait for you at the door.

I think those ducks were annoyed with you for being late! Most animals like a routine, don't they?
