I don't know if I love them more, let's just say at this point, if he made me get rid of all of them, I'd get rid of him.
I know that will never happen, so. Why would he let me get them all in the first place, right? LOL
Yesterday was a gorgeous day and by evening, it was actually getting a little cool. A little North East wind was blowing and it was a perfect night for playing fetch.
Kali plays hard! Throw away after throw after throw and she's like the Energizer Bunny! She keeps on going! Stopping for a moment in the cool grass.

I think it's more than one in ten...! I know mine would be gone if it came down to it lol
@MyBuddy I love your crew, you have such a fitting and perfect family! Human and critters!
Nothing but rain in the forecast for here since Tuesday and goes on til my weather app doesn't have any more days to report on LOL I don't mind a whole lot, it comes and goes. The ducks love it, and Brinks apparently likes watching/sniffing it.
Think I got a COON in the barn... at first was worried about a bear but didn't see any tracks indicating a bear, just one that looked like a coon. They ate the ducks leftover food from yesterday too! Gonna set up the camera tonight. My next post might be me sporting a new coonskin cap.
My baby ducks! Blossoming into young adults, I do believe I have a pair. My duck is a boy and you can see him starting to get his nuptial plumage, the green head and all of that standard to Mallards. They are super cute to watch, they make sweet little noises and just kind of bop around.

Awww, thank you so much! I love my family and my animals. I could die a happy woman LOL
Oh no! Or maybe a possum? We had a couple of baby possums in our barn a couple of years ago. Took me a long time with trail cams and a live trap, to get them.
Do either of those endanger your ducks??

A opossum is also a likely suspect! Coons could go after the ducks, I don't know about opossums. I have them pretty well protected so I'm not very worried but I still don't want coons in the barn. Or any critter other than the ducks and maybe some toads! Whatever it was also pushed the ducks food bin all the way across the yard where it'd be in sight of the dogs area, last night around 10:30 me and Brinks went outside and he definitely began barking like there was a critter out there.

You know when ANYTHING reflective catches a light beam and projects it onto the wall/ceiling? "Tinkerbells!" I love this video because it's got 'shark fins' in it, too
Dory came to visit last night! Look at this tough guy surrounded by his female body gaurds
@Brioddy I'm sorry if I missed this but do ducks mate for life? Will these guy migrate and come back to your place every season?

I love the name tinkerbells for those LOL never even thought about it! Ducks are not monogamous creatures, a single drake is comfortable with about five "hens" (female ducks are called just that - ducks!) but my original pair got along fine with just the two and I am hoping my ducklings are happy also as a pair. There is some chasing but no real fighting and they still all hang out close together. The babies are not actual mallards, but are a type of duck called Rouen that have the exact coloration as a mallard. They flutter about but are too big to actually fly and they don't know anything but life here so I doubt they'd run off even if they had the chance.
Haha, I've never heard them call Tinkerbell's either. But my animals just ignore them.

Took MooMoo to a parade today! (We found out there's a big one 1 block away from our new house. They line some of the floats up in front of our house to stage them, even. Who knew!?)
We left Rubie at home because handling both of these pooches in that situation would be too much right now. She's done parades before and is totally fine but I was APALLED at the kids we saw and their attitudes toward dogs - ALL dogs withing site of us. Screaming, jumping, hugging, asking to hold leashes. Shameful.
Moose had a good time, though
