So today went from just a little front yard work, to
about 3 hours worth of trying to save a mama duckling
and her 8 babies. It's really too much to go into, but
suffice it to say it involved landscape cloth and flattened
cardboard boxes and clothespins and rope and and and...
My city boy husband was the one that finally managed
to catch her.

Four people are very tired, but VERY glad we did it, those babies
would have been toast in this neighborhood!

Hope they do well in their new neighborhood.

Good job, Valerie!! That had to be a satisfying feeling to see them paddling away in their new environment!

They were pretty bad Snooze, but thankfully at least it was because of
all the commotion, people in their yard etc. and not just incessant
barking, that house is only 2 doors down from ours, so I would really
hate it if I heard that all the time!
