Baby ducks in the pond. Twelve new little neighbors!
I love mallards. And I love living in Minnesota.
It's been so nice outside. Elin likes sitting on the swing.
Sadly, a little robin egg fell out of the nest under our deck.
Svea made a cross, said a prayer, and paid her last respects.
Viggo is our resident naturalist and butterfly whisperer.
He catches them so quickly, sometimes with the net, sometimes with his hands. Monarchs, giant tiger swallowtails, sulfurs, painted ladies. He captures them, identifies them, and then we all get to enjoy them.
And he is so gentle with them.
We keep them a few hours for observation, then let them get back to their little butterfly jobs.
Elin likes underwear. Here is a stack of little undies. She likes to change in and out of them frequently, and she recently went through 19 pairs in 2.5 days.
