Briley's Favorite Animal

Ok, so I really have no idea what Briley's favorite animal is. But I do know that she calls most animals ducks. She is getting better about calling other animals by their correct names, but for the most part.....they are ALL are still ducks. That dog running past our house? Uh, that would be a duck, according to Briley. That cat in her book? Once again - a duck. You get the idea. Anyhow, we've went and fed the ducks at the lake once before, but it was a couple of months ago, so we went again today. Briley really gets into this - she literally screams "Hi!" at them, waves wildly and then tries to chase after them. They always scramble away in fear and she acts like she cannot fathom why they would be terrified of her. Today she even went into the lake up to her knees and Adam and I had to drag her out because she would have went all the way in, had we let her. We do have to be careful at these duck feedings, though - those things get crazy and just go nuts when it comes to food. Moldy bread is apparently very enticing. We've heard that they have tried to attack people before, so we always park close and leave the doors unlocked in case we need to jump in quickly. Ok - I know you all are laughing now, but seriously! Today they started approaching us and hissing when Adam couldn't get the bread out of the bag fast enough! Anyway, I took a few pictures of our outing, so enjoy!
