Just lost Watson, to an eagle attack.

Three spoiled Khaki Campbells (Walter, Mildred, Mocha)(RIP Watson), two spoiled Magpies (Ciscoe, Peeps), one spoiled miniature red dachshund (Abbey), one spoiled black and tan dappled miniature dachshund (Sherman), and a not-so-spoiled husband.

They seem to be. Luckily my husband was home and saw it coming, so we got there fast. They are all locked up now, because the eagle, and the crows that were attacking him, are still hanging around. I am heartsick. Only left them long enough to come in the house to get more feed.

Oh, no.

Nine beautiful Runners, four beautiful Buffs, thousands of beautiful memories and counting.

Looking for ducks? Please consider adopting rescued ducks. There are many places and people who do rescues, but we are not allowed to post the links due to BYC regs. So fire up your web browsers and find some sweet, grateful duckies.
