Was chilling on the deck with my chicks this morning, and noticed beetles in their nest. I cleaned the bin out and replaced the nest. Obviously, my two babies had to be wiggled about a little for the task. Here's Frenky, waiting to be placed back upon some warm paper towel, Luther is already chilling. Thelma, the mother, was chilling on the railing about two feet away. It's actually amazing how chill these birds are!
3 days in a row this year, the same male with his bitch duck would come within 2 feet of us, but every time another 2 ducks came close the male would fly off after them and leave the female to chill with us. Also they loved the all seasoned sunflower seeds.
