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

The pretty ones, the pretty ones...why are they always the dudes???
I know! I feel like every single time I get connected to one, it's a guy. But that's kinda accurate in life too. 🤣
I’ve only had females. How loud is a quail crow?
Not loud at all! Like I have neighbors super close and they've never even heard it.
 
All of my duck hens that survived this winter (bad year with foxes and hawks for me) have been broody except 1.
2 girls sat together, they have 3 ducklings a little over a month old.
I have another raising 8 ducklings, 4 of hers, 4 from a hen I lost.
Another raising 3
And another raising 3.
Yesterday my chocolate came off the nest with 6!
One grey left nesting. Due any day.
And I kept 2 from an incubator hatch.

This doesn’t even mention chickens! They haven’t been as prolific yet. Just a few chicken chicks so far.

Seriously, people! Gloating is not an attractive quality! (OK, I’ll admit, jealousy isn’t, either…)

Good Morning, Pond!
Another beautiful day on my lily pad. So much to do before Camp next week and so little time… After spending several hours in the garden for two days in a row, I have a few muscles that are asking me what in the world I was thinking. Oh well, they’ll get over it.

Have a great Saturday, everyone! It is Saturday, right? One full day out of school, and I’ve already lost track!
