A happy hello to
amber,
doitsu,
lambo,
libera,
lundi,
nerdrage,
sebastian, &
sugared from the recent friending meme! I'm eager to get to know you all better, and I hope you enjoy reading my sporadic entries (hopefully I'll update with some manner of regularity in the future).
A duck laid eggs in our garden earlier this month, dutifully sat on them until two of the seven hatched, and then ran off, never to return. It seems like the five eggs that didn't hatch are goners (alas :( ), but the two ducklings that did hatch were healthy and adorable! Since I'm hardly in any position to raise ducklings, we scooped up the abandoned youngsters and are now transporting them to their new home, where they will be nurtured by a preteen girl until they, uh, grow up, I guess? They'll be in good hands, sure, but I fear Jonas Brothers-inspired nomenclature lies in their future. Sorry I sold you into bad taste, little guys. I managed to snap a few photos of them before they left, though:






SO CUTE. I really dig the one with the Billy Idol hair; a true bro in the making, he is. vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

I miss living near a pond; we used to see ducklings all the time in all their RIDICULOUSLY FLOOFY glory!
fff as long as they don't get named "hanna" and "montana" I think they will be fine;;;

AHHH, that's so awesome! The strange thing is, I don't live in close proximity to a pond; a band of oddly colored, sometimes tufted (with Billy Idol hair!) ducks just started wandering into my backyard a few months back, and then one decided that this was a prime place to nest. I liked their company, but it was even more worrying that there was no place for the ducklings to go to after their mother abandoned them, so that's why I hurried in giving them away. If they get named Hannah and Montana, I think I will cry for them.
