The Duck Collector has Returned !!

 
 
It has been a very wet week to say the least... needless to say the pond is looking good.

 
The pond is starting to settle and become established, this is taking some time but the plastic ducks seem to be enjoying their swim !  But not for long....

 
The duck collector has returned.... Doza just loves to round up the ducks.  Its a great game.  I throw them back in, they float around and he tracks them around the pond and then its collection time.

 
I really enjoy walking round the pond and watch it mature, I've already seen tiny frogs...  The swallows just love to swoop over the water hunting and drinking.  We have also had four real Mallard ducks come for a visit.  Just hoping Doza can spot the difference !!

You'll need to get one of those floating nests for the real ducks, Jayne - unless Doza turns into a nest raider! The pond is looking really good - nice one! Shirley & Robbie

Lovely pond! And Doza is adorable.

Gosh! Things have really come on since we saw you last! Wonderful pond - have you been tempted to paddle in it?! Made it as far as Yorkshire last weekend but no time to come any further - maybe soon?!
