Ted hits puberty...

Wildlife

"They must be grown-up ducks, because they're eating the crusts too."

'Thanks, we really appreciate this. Yeah, the middle button. Don't worry, it's auto-focus - just aim and shoot.'

'Hey, Baby! How would you like to kiss the frog formerly known as 'Prince'?'

But there are other pleasures still for the fisherman's delight....for nature is everywhere about him.

Mother Duck.

'If someone farts in the forest and there's no one around to smell it, does it make a stink?'

Business Duck

'I'll say this for you young Thoreu - he certainly does make good use of his pond.'

'I can't shake off this feeling we're being watched.'

'Who's best friend are you?'

Sooners! Opening day of fishing.

Meanwhile back at the pond 'Wow... nice pad man!'

'My ultimate ambition is a large pond.'

'It's so embarrassing. My mother had my tadpole tail bronzed!'
