Hi, my name is Allan and I am from Cleveland, Queensland, Australia. I am an animal lover and have spent many years raising orphaned wildlife. I have 3 ducks that have complete freedom of our backyard and are much loved family pets. My first duck used to travel with me in the vehicle to the produce agency where she attracted much attention by following me through the store, up to the counter and then waited at the passenger door for the return trip home. I must admit that I have more time for animals than most human beings. Their love is totally unconditional. Thank you for allowing me to be part of this family of bird lovers, regards Allan.

frow.gif  Wonderful story!  I'm at a wildlife seminar for the next several days, and am surrounded by dozens of young ducks with various injuries.  Recent severe storms in our area have made life tough on our water fowl.  

Married to the old dude, 0 human kids, 2 horses, 10 cockatiels, 2 parakeets, 1 sun conure, 1 amazon parrot,  1 eccentric peacock, 1 gsd, 1 pet terrapin, 1 Blue Copper Maran rooster, and 14 world famous Jersey Giants!

Helen: Daria, do you have to look at everything in such a negative light?

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?
