Pictures of Duckies Past (or passed on)

It's just a small creek they have access to. I believe it was an owl(s) that got them, It happened at night and there really were no feathers anywhere. We have also had eagles try to get some of the birds before, in the middle of the day with everyone out in the yard! luckily we scared her off and the bird was fine.

The predator birds are worse than the coyotes the last few years. I've only had 1 coyote incident since i lost these guys, he got 2 Pekin-X ducks, feathers EVERYWHERE..all the way back to the hill.

The male was sold after the female was killed...they were the coolest looking ducks

They are the most stunningly beautiful ducks ever..... black east indies I would say. I havent seen any in Australia that look quite that bright.... even the girl is quite green!

Yeah they were beautiful.. I would have bred them until the female died, then their was no use keeping the male
