We have new family members - 3 ducklings! “How comes”, you might ask, well the answer is a long story.

Our neighbours above us had a duck breeding on their balcony. Since we have a flat “hanging” over a harbor (difficult to explain, check out the home page of our house) below our apartment/flat is the harbor in Hamburg.

So, last Sunday (July 13th), they finally hatched. It seems there were about 9 eggs, out of which five made it down to the harbor very fast, i.e. within about 1 hour after their mother starting calling them from down. The mother was swimming in the harbor and calling them to jump down.

In fact, this is one of the main reasons why I still believe in humanity.
