For Ducks sake


More bad news about our blonde duck that was nesting near Merryton bridge. This morning I spoke to a Mr Mackintosh who witnessed a Hoodie crow taking an egg from her nest this morning.

I think our blonde duck who has already lost all 16 of her first ducklings has finally given up in the face of the hoodie onslaught.
The hoodies having eaten all this years ducklings are now targetting the nests, something will have to be done I reckon.
To cap it all I saw a man feeding the hoodies, gulls and ducks together this evening, for ducks sake will they ever learn!
