Mom, Dad and 11 little ducklings have made their way into my back yard and into my pool. Dad takes off now and then, but mom stays with the ducklings.They are adorable, but I live in the middle of a suburb. I have called a wildlife rescue place, they say just leave them alone and they will go away. But I am surrounded by houses and streets/main streets. And would like to be able to use my back yard. Suggestions? They are amazing to watch!
Thanks

Based on what the wildlife rescue folks said, I'd say, "Sit back and enjoy the show!" Borrow a camcorder and film them through your back window or something... it's not every day you get to observe a family of ducks in your backyard!

Your pool, eh? I hope it's not heavily chlorinated... though I've seen whistling ducks and other wild birds happily enjoying fairly clean looking pools (like the otter pool) at the San Antonio Zoo. <shrug> Go figure!
