Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

I really hate getting up early to fish and the person I'm supposed to go with doesn't show. ..

Well a little more of that picnic table sticking out today..... Might even be able to see the benches by the end of the day

Aren’t they pretty!?

Very pretty!
They are supposed to be very good layers too! Lots of eggs.
How old are they?

Yeah.
That’s what I’ve heard, good foragers too.
That I don’t know, I got them from the sale. J know they’re old enough to quack and have a drake feather and that when I was putting them away last night the ducks pubic bones were all two and a half to three fingers wide so I’m assuming they’re laying age.

Was just reading about them in Storeys Guide. They look decently bred too. Nice scattered markings, not too much bib. Nice head markings and white necks. Good find!

Oh nice.
That’s what I thought. Well thanks. I’m not sure if he was a breeder or just getting rid of them but he sold about 80 I guess he must’ve been a breeder to have that many.

Good morning, Pond - Happy Sunday.

I've got a 15 minute rule when waiting for anyone. "Show up within 15 minutes of the designated time or I leave without you."
