We Have Duck Eggs

May 26, 2009

Last week, I mentioned I’d been seeing a male and female duck around the yard.  Mostly between my house and my neighbor’s house.  Over the weekend our neighbor was out trimming her bushes when the mother duck flew out from the bush.  Funny thing is, she shook the bushes before she started trimming, just in case [...]
