What a fiasco.. Moving these two ducks to the big pond today. The saying "you can lead a horse to water."... may work for horses... but theses two gave us a run for our money. With brooms in hand to herd them ( actually one ) because I caught one and carried her hoping the other one would follow... NOT.. Finally releasing the one I carried they both rushed into the bushes and tree. With coaxing they made it to their new playground. A pond full of tadpoles and frogs and bugs.. Buster helped willingly to wade out into the pond and got scolded.. I think the ducks will be much happier here and it will cut down on our feed bill too..
Dont you think this is a great place to play, live and eat?

They are so happy! Good job on the duck herding.
They look quite content. You have been a busy lady. Yes we need to get together to catch up.
That pond certainly looks like the perfect place for them...hope they stay there...:)JP
