Saturday Photo: Ready to Set up Housekeeping


 For several years there have been  Mallard duck couple nesting in the Mount Royal cemetery.  This morning I was glad to see them there again.  They probably aren't the same couple--ducks don't have very long lives, and the American Bird Conservancy says they only stay together a season--but it is good to see that the little stream is still inviting, and that soon there probably will be a clutch of eggs laid.
