I visited the duck ponds outside the Tucson Zoo for the first time this week. I have never seen such a huge quantity and variety of ducks and geese.
There must have been at least 75 Wigeons, numerous Coots, Mallards, Redheads, Canvasbacks etc; along with white ducks, multi-colored ducks, Swan geese, Snow Geese, and four Cormorants. There were also numerous rock pigeons.

Apparently they love Cheerios.....a lady was hand feeding them from the box, and then dumped the rest near me. there was a storm of ducks and birds all around me, eating up the Cheerio's.

Hope you enjoy these.

Nice photos. Cheerios is people food not for wildlife and chemicals can be more dangerous for wildlife than people.
Tell her to buy bird feed.

Good point Jeff. She didn't seem to speak English very well.
I assumed it was bird seed, until she dumped out the box.

Thanks for your comments

Wow, that must have been fun! Getting close to ducks is something I rarely get to happen. Around here they're too skittish from too many people shooting guns at them.
