they are hers.
yes, that is my sweet pippa girl.
look how she swam her babies
across the pond to meet me.
ten babies.
they are my grand-ducklings.
i spied her with them on sunday night,
but it was dusk and she was way across the pond.
i needed to make 100% sure it was her.
yesterday i spent a long time out there,
but she seemed agitated and wouldn't leave
her side of the pond.
my guess is that she was completely
exhausted with ten brand new hatchlings.
today, she came when i called her
and i got to feed her some corn
and admire her babies for more than an hour.
oh, i love this sweet ducka
and her little baby duckas
so, SO much.
please say a little prayer for pip
and for her babies.
