our ducks - their first time in the creek

this creek is the western border of our property

We have done a lot of things on our property to encourage the wildlife to stick around. We have been rewarded with Owls, a breeding pair of Red Tailed Hawks, several types of Herons and Cranes, Doves, Woodpeckers, and various other types of birds. Now we have added ducks and chickens of our own.

There is also a large Bobcat that frequents our property, as well as this Otter. We found out too late that the owl and bobcat are partial to ducks and chickens.

We are now down to 3 ducks, we took them out of the creek until they are older and can fly, they are in a fenced yard near the dogs. Hopefully that proximity will discourage the hawks and owl. We're not sure about the Bobcat.
