One of my favorite movies is "GOOD MORNING, MISS DOVE", with Jennifer Jones . One of those wonderful black & white nostalgic movies of the past that made us all remember our 3rd or 4th grade teacher's stern hold on the classroom! I have a mama duck, just like Miss Dove. She puts up with NO NONSENSE from her little brood.Her peeps are only a few days old, yet they fully understand rules & regulations...such as standing on line in a perfect row."No talking on line" and ..."Follow me".

How is it that a baby duckling, only a few days old , can grasp complicated concepts? They have a brain the size of my pinky fingernail, yet they grasp the concept to forage for food at only a few days old. Hummpf! Amazing!
