Return of the ducks

Well, return of the duck, singular. Today is the first day that we've had a duck in the quadrangle that our office looks down into. Last year we had two mother ducks and chicks throughout the summer. Watching the chicks grow up was easily our (then) new office's best feature. We never actually saw them leave, that probably happened at a weekend or overnight, but we've been waiting their return since then. Anyway, the arrival of one seems notable enough for a mention here. At some point I'll try to snap off a picture or two for here.
