Keepers are quackers. by blightygal

Keepers are quackers.

No time for a photo, am going to use another pic from Rounday, Leeds. Taken a few months ago.

This one was sad, the duck tried to get down to the water for a dip, but got its foot tangled in the netting. After much wiggling, it did get free, but I wasn't all that impressed that they had things like this in the animal enclosure. Makes me wonder how much they know about animal care.. Ah.. perhaps I worry too much!

Right, back to cleaning :-( Sorry not been very active here and leaving comments, just too much to do. Hopefully back next week!

Update 11/7/10
Sent the pics to the park, and they have informed me that they will remove the netting immediately :-)
Cool pic, that is sad about the net though

I'm really surprised about the netting. Glad this had a positive ending. I've never seen a duck with that coloring - really pretty.

Nice capture. Don't work too hard. Hope everything is going okay.

It does sound bizarre having netting in an enclosure but you captured this duck really with lovely clear, sharp colours

Pretty duck. Looks a bit peeved. Could just be my imagination.

Beautiful duck. That's horrible about the net though. I hope you notified someone of it so they could remove it. They should make sure it's kept cleaner.

ah poor duck!

Re the records...not guilty pleasures in the records stacks, my first album was The Prodigy's Experience. I think I was like 12, and getting in rave! Although no doubt there is probaley the odd mp3 that should'nt be in my collection out the 1000's that I have.

Don't worry Freida. I am looking forward to hear from you when the moving business is done. Poor duck. Good picture.

I am loving this string of animal-themed photos! Like in the meercat one, the focus in this one is amazing! :)
