The Cottage in Photos

This is the front of the cottage:


The first duck that came to visit - a female mallard:



View of the dock and lake from the porch:



The little painted turtle that Clara found, Corwin caught, and we took pictures of before setting him free again. How cute is that little neck!?



Corwin in his boat, checking out the fish situation:



Jumping off the dock - Clara went first, Corwin soon followed:



The mama duck and her three babies. They visited often, and would be within inches of us by the time we left. They would even get up on the dock when we were there, and the ducklings would nestle together and snooze:



Clara taking pictures of the ducklings:

Corwin took this picture of the room where he and Clara slept. When I uploaded it, I discovered that Clara was still asleep when he took it!!
