Duck update

For any of you that remember the little family of sixteen ducks here are the six remaining with dad & mum. This is the second visit today...they are eating us out of house & home!!
Practically fully grown we are amazed they are still hanging around with the parents!
Oh wow, they look great.

@happypat Oh how sad :( sorry to hear it.

I'm amazed they survived because they must have put themselves in peril coming to dine at yours. Duck for Christmas dinner perhaps?

@barrowlane Oh we couldn't Rob...could you? Mind you we have fed them like fighting cocks!
June 11th, 2014  
Wow. Keep the duck chow coming.

Its a great and clear photo of these survivors! I expect they make a bit of a mess around too in this nice scene!

@maggiemae funnily enough maggiemae they don't make a mess thank goodness....they must do it all as the walk here.....not there long enough to do much messing about!

Wow they grow fast! And 16 down to 6? That's really survival of the fittest.

Good to see the family group.. they do have a bit of bad luck raising their young..
June 11th, 2014  
Lovely to see though! Must not be bothering with a second brood perhaps. Can you tell if they are male/female yet?
June 11th, 2014

They are amazingly big so quickly. Thank goodness some have survived.

Well look how they matured. How neat that they are still hanging around

Wow, so good to see them again. I think you have set yourself up here now. I am sure they will all remember you and will be bringing their children to visit before long too.
