Life's important rules.

[Garbz]

1. Rule your house with an iron fist, when someone says stand to attention you stand to attention:

2. Always keep a watchful eye:

3. The best defence is a good offence:

4. And when it becomes perfectly clear that the photographer is hanging around your kids:

5. Assume he's a paedophile and chase his arse away:

It didn't take me long to realise they only attack if you're afraid of them. Lots of people were watching me take these and couldn't figure out why the duck was attacking everyone except me even though I was by far the closest to the ducklings.

awesome shots. I like the first one best. How they lined up is really cool..

Thanks. Yeah this was at uni. At one point the ducks realised they were outnumbered by spectators and all the ducklings lined up next to the lake. I thought it fascinating and gained a new found respect for their intelligence. Never seen anything quite like it coming from a bird.
