Lily has not come home yet. I spent an hour this morning walking the area and paying close attention to fields with bushes and trees she might be attracted to and hide under.
I took my phone with me to the place I saw her yesterday and played a video I have of all my ducks making lots of Myscovy chatter thinking if she was around it might bring her out. All it brought out were barking dogs from the houses around.. lol.
I have shoveled a good chunk of the back lawn. Really, other then the evergreen trees in the area it is the only green around. I'm sure she will notice if she flies over.

I will definitely update if we find her and try to update in a few days if she is not found. Thanks for the prayers everyone.

Do you have creeks or ponds or rivers around you? If I was a Muscovy That's where I would be. Water means safety to ducks.

Not any that I know of. There is a lake 2 miles away. I can't think of anything close that would attract her.

Do you know of anyone else in your area that has ducks? she may have spotted them and is hanging out?

I know there are many backyard chickens and ducks in the area. The ones that I know of are on the lookout for her. I have posted in local lost and found on Craigslist and Facebook. But she is so flighty, I almost feel she will just need to decide to come home on her own. Of course if she gets hurt I would have a much better chance of catching her. But praying it doesn't come to that.

I hope she does come home I'll pray she does.

When my Muscovy flew off thankfully he didn't make it all the way to the river down below us. I was able to go down and walk him home. But boy that scared me if he had gotten into the river I probably wouldn't have gotten him back. He was young and the drake was picking on him. After that he got a wing clipped.

Any news?

Any news?

Nothing yet. I'm praying she comes home today or tomorrow, we are expecting negative temps starting Sunday night. Worried for her. She is my plumpest girl just not sure how long she can go with little food and water and then extreme cold which Muscovies hate.
