Wildlife find the most unusual spots to have their young

I was taking Lady for a walk around the clubhouse yesterday when she sniffed upon a Mama Mallard in one of our flower beds along the pool wall.  I heard this flush of something as she dove into the Miscanthus grass and their were a large number of eggs.  I chased Lady out of the spot and the Mama came chasing after us and told us to get out of there and not come back.  Always love to see baby Mallards on our lakes.  You can see the blue on her wing tip but she looks like the mulch as she lays in wait for her little puff ball children to arrive.
