Hole craap!  If all ducks laid that many eggs, I may start Duck hunting again! 

Look a little closer.... It takes 2 ducks to lay that many eggs.

[Duffman]

Even with 2 ducks, that's a shiat ton of eggs.

Future bass feed. 

I hope they all hatch and make the jump.

Well learned something new. I thought only one female would lay per-nest.  But, households are a bit different today!

The pond does have a few bass in it.

 

But Mr snapping turtle is already licking his chops.

So I checked my wood duck house by sticking my camera in the hole.  There are a lot of eggs.  A LOT.  

 

I got worried that it was an egg dump and mama duck abandoned it.  So I checked it again and.....

Holy smokes!  What are these, Sister Wives?!

 

Need another box?

Nice haul smalliehunter!  What part of the state are you in?

For some reason the birdies and bunnies decided setting up shop right outside our front door where our 3 year old lab hangs out would be a good idea. All are safe.

south central. The wife and I think it’s over around here. Lack of rain this month shut it down a little early

Nice pile! 

The lack of rain and a few nights it froze probably didn't help the adult easter egg hunt this year!

A friend was out fly fishing and came across this little guy.

Fun time of year.

Was out on Monday exploring cavities in power poles and trees. You never know what you are going to find.

Missed it.  Must have went when I was out of town for walleye opener.  

 

Only 5 duds out of that mess of eggs is pretty good.

Hopefully they made it and weren't lunch for something?

I posted a pic on April 15 of a hen standing on the box.  The hens disappeared off the pond a day or two after that.  So about 4 weeks of egg sitting, right on target. 

 

I should have checked the date on when the hens disappeared.  Last year I did that and was able to correctly predict the hatch within 2 days.

Rode bikes 28 miles of the Gitchi Gami trail today. Had to ride out a thunderstorm at Split Rock. Scenery was fabulous!
