BULLETIN: They've Hatched!!!

 Olivia and her newly-hatched ducklings somehow made it down from the roof and are swimming in our upper pond. I just hope that the cats, raccoons, skunks and other creatures of the night leave them alone. She'd got about a dozen. Obviously she knew what she was doing when she nested on our roof. We humans, however, weren't convinced. I have no idea how she got them down. All I know is that she was sitting on her nest yesterday afternoon. This morning the ducklings were on the pond. I feel like a grandmother. Posted by Picasa
