Our Ducks



Our duck families have undergone some changes since the weather got hot. First, Mr. Goose finds himself all alone. His ladies have gone North, but for some reason, he has decided to stay here. We occasionally see a whole flock of geese that have stopped by for a bit, but by the next day, they are always in the wind, so to speak. Second, the mallards have lost one of their number.

And finally, the white ducks have gained a new member and not just any duck but another pom-pom duck. His pom-pom is outrageously big and much more impressive than the little wisps that other duck calls a pom-pom. Give this duck a baton and he could lead a marching band. What's really strange is that he seems to be their new leader, and since his arrival, the white ducks have been staying out of trouble.
