Baby Peacocks and mama Ducky...



and did i mention... a snake!!! Daughter phoned this morning... welllll i guess mama Ducky has been sitting on some eggs..... a LOT of eggs... and no, none of them are hers.... a bit of background on Ducky... she was given to my daughter from our vet's office... someone had tried to have her for dinner, and someone else had rescued her in mid 'throttling'... and she had this Z in her neck for quite some time... anyways.. it's gone, she's fine.. but she thinks she's a peacock!!!



now that nest is minus 2....

one of them isn't doing very well.. and we don't think it will make it.. but hey one never knows... mother nature has some weird twists sometimes....
speaking of twists.... grandson found a snake... i tried to get a pic of the neck.. but its got a L neck.. so it's in rehab too...just a wee one... so it should have a good chance of survival.. we have more than enough slugs bugs and other things around.. we've been swamped with rain...
