Note: There appear to be two woodduck families living on this lake (look closely
at the first image).  One mother has three ducklings (they are a few days younger
than the other covey); the other ("original") covey consisted of nine ducklings,
but today I could count only seven.  Click here to see the photographs of the
original family.
