Homing pigeons

We moved the young ducks down to the pond a few weeks ago. Every few days, they turn up again and we have to shoo them back to the pond. Their mother lives up here by the house and she encourages them to visit!
Ha, ha. I wonder if you are on a losing streak with these ducks. I love the photo, "ducks are a'dabbling, up tails all"

@ethelperry Yes -it's a bit of a battle, but 11 ducks wandering around is a bit much! 3 I can cope with….. At night, the three that are already here do a circuit of the house and set off every sensor light, then the place looks like a lighthouse!

Well timed with getting the 'Bums up' shot... good luck on them staying in your pond...

I once knew a girl whose pet duck loved her so much, followed her everywhere, and even found a place to sleep right under the lass's bedroom at night.

@ethelperry Oh - thanks for that - something I don't want to happen here!

Ba, ha ha. But I guess when you live on the land you become smarter then ducks and they will get the message.

Ha, you can't fence them in like cows, chickens are bad enough without ducks too. Nice photo.

They sure look fit and healthy so good luck! Reminds me of the old song where 'Mother Duck said, quack, quack and all the five little ducks came back'.
