Bridgeport Marketplace (Duck Pond)

"Feed the ducks!"

My 20 month old and I find ourselves here at least once a week.  She likes to take a couple slices of bread and go to the duck pond and feed the ducks, ducklings, and turtles that live in this beautiful pond.  It really is quite a beautiful spot.  

There is a nice bridge with fencing that keeps the kids safe.  Plenty of benches to sit and watch the ducks.  You don't even notice the fact that you are on the corner of a very busy intersection.  Even though you are close to the intersection it is a very safe design to the duck pond area.  The only concern is if you leave the bridge, the side that is next to the parking lot is open and doesn't have any kind of fencing.  

We usually spend 30-60 minutes taking in the sights.  There are lots of ducklings that are super cute to watch. The two big white ducks  are stunning.  Then there are probably 30 brown ducks and a bunch of turtles.  

This is in a shopping center with restaurants and stores.
