Ducks too?

A few weeks ago I came out my front door and I heard loud flapping and it sounded like a condor had been on my porch! In the field next to us there was a male and female duck walking around. Later that day, we found a nest in my flower bed right by the front door and it had two eggs in it. We thought that was really neat. The next day there were three, the next four and so on until finally there were seven eggs and the female duck was sitting on them. By then, she had gotten used to us walking by and now she just sits there while we look at her. I even pulled weeds in the flower bed and she didn't move. Wiki says ducks take about 28 days to hatch and it seems like it's been about that long so we hope that we get so see some baby ducklings soon. There isn't a pond very close by so when they do hatch we worry they will have a long walk. We are really excited though to see such an unusual thing!
