Middle School Ducks

A duck couple decided that the small pond in the courtyard at Lowell Scott Middle School was a good place to raise a family. It's been a bumpy ride, with crows stealing 4 babies so far, but the students love seeing nature this close. The ducklings won't be able to leave until they can fly - the courtyard is enclosed.

  1. I've seen a sunken courtyard on my campus which tends to get used by duck families each spring. It's a good, sheltered spot with bushes, long grass, and no predators.
