Two of my friends in the garden have been limping badly lately and have been confined to the pen in the hope that they recover naturally. Sadly they have not got any better so they were taken off in a cardboard box yesterday and we feared the worst! Happily, it turned out that they had had a visit to the Vet and they are now back and taking medicine for their problems. They both seem to be getting better and hope to be on the pond again soon. (Neither is that happy about the medicine though -- tastes horrible!)

We have a bit of a mystery at the moment -- several of my Indian Runner duck friends have disappeared very recently -- including the lovely new duckling that was protected for so long. Some of my fellows think it is the fox, but I haven't seen any evidence of this and they are not very "meaty". We are now all on alert, keeping a very good eye out watching comings and goings, foxes and people!
