2007-07-04. And I could walk in nature and find peace under the oak. It's not common with oaks in the north of Sweden. This oak was planted at campus by a gardener.

I heard the warning "Quack" of the duck mother when I walked over the bridge. But when the duck mother saw it was me, she came on land with her ducklings and I was allowed to feed them.

2007-06-07. When I walked away they were following me. LOL :-)
2007-06-07. The ducklings were swimming away without their mother. Then the duck mother was quaking high and called them. Here the mother met the ducklings. And they were together again.
2007-06-07. This duck female was not afraid and was begging some students for food. The duck saw that they had sandwiches. There were two more ducks who came begging. One of the students went scared when one of the ducks was flying away with a loud FLAP, FLAP, FLAP. And then came back begging bread again. The ducks were so funny and I could not stop laughing :-)
2007-06-07. Later the duck was flying to me. And she landed beside my feet. I was not afraid if the duck was "flapping" with her wings. But I told the duck that the bread was eaten and gone. It was like the duck understood what I sad and she flied away to the pond.

2007-06-08.  The duckling shooed away the goldeneye. Even though the goldeneye was bigger as the duckling, she was scared away. It looked so funny that this little duckling could scare away the bigger duck. I was laughing.
