Later this arvo i noticed the dog in the backyard chewing on a duckling.Hopfully most of the others have caught up with each other.I will go for a look later as Mum and dad have now shot through.
Fingers crossed the three i have will have a chance.They now located in my bird room.They have spark in the water,bird seed,meal worms,earth worms and magots available if they survive.
Sitting on the verander today.I noticed somthing strange in the grass in the backyard.On closer inspection found that it was a pr of ducks with approximately a dozen ducklings.These are wild ducks that must have decided to nest beside my wood shed.Unfortuantly the dogs had noticed them too.Some made it through the chicken wire while some had to be helped.The problem was they all ran of into the paddock in different directions.Mean while Mum and Dad had taken of.I made a split decision to keep the last three that had not made it through quick enough.As the Lake down the back will be dry in the next couple of days,And all the other duckings down the back are now flying.Also mum and dad will be lucky to locate all the ducklings.

Perhaps i should have let nature take its course.
