Mother duck fends off seagull who tried to attack her ducklings
« on: October 08, 2013, 12:33:18 PM »
A murderous seagull that gobbled up a duckling got more than it bargained for when it returned for another helping.

It swooped on the ducklings as they swam with their parents in Herbert Park, Dublin, last week.

But the mother duck, who initially had eleven ducklings in tow, finally forced the gull away by aggressively flapping her wings.

Foiled: The seagull scoops the chick out of the water, but drops it when the mother swoops in

In a flap: The angry mother proved she was no sitting duck and chased the attacker away

Yes, it was. Thanks to its mother. From the picture tho, looks like it was in a lot of pain. If it wasn't for the mother,..it would have been gobbled up. :o
