The chicks are here! Pictures hopefully tonight...computer makes editing them unfun.
Ducks are an issue as we have a pond just big enough for one goose pair and one mallard pair (although several pairs of mergansers) and we found having domestic ducks keeps the wild ones away. My parents opted to stop raising ducks for this reason, I'm keeping with that too. Waiting to see the ducks, actually, they usually don't show up until the ducklings hatch while the Canada geese are apparent...the female on her nest and the male sometimes guarding, sometimes hanging with my horse.
