Duckie's New Home

Well, I finally bit the bullet and took Duckie to her new home. It was definitely a bit hard to let her go, but it's a beautiful little area in one of the marinas here in the area, with about a dozen other ducks around.

I was very worried about how the other ducks would react to this new little one that showed up on their door step, but I was pleasantly surprised when within a few minutes, one of the older ducks came over and started to check her out.

Within 10 minutes, they were both in the water swimming around, with Duckie following the other duck.

So, it looks like Duckie has found a new mum. Such fickleness. From following me around everywhere, to dropping me like a rock.

But it looks like she's in a nice spot, with others to help her out and to teach her the things I never could.

I'll be going over there periodically to check up on her and make sure she's doing well, but I have high hopes that with her new mum, she'll be just fine. Talons Crossed!

My love and best wishes go out to her.
