Cute!!! I used to occasionally get ducks in my pool too - I'd snap a picture then open the back door which would shoo them away, LOL.

Mostly we got frogs in our pool. In the spring I had to make sure to check the pool every morning before the filters kicked on or I'd find frog corpses in the filters. I love frogs so I enjoyed my morning frog-rescuing routine. Found at least one frog just about every morning, and a few times I caught a couple of them trying to spawn!

Lucky you to get to see them up close.
People around lakes always gripe about the wild ducks making a mess. About like people moving by an airport then gripe about the noise.

They were just checking out the neighborhood to see what the humans swim in.

Now you will really have to filter and sterilize your pool! They look lovely but have a tendency to make a mess...
