Never mess with a mamma duck!
The past few weeks have been full. so full I have struggled to find a moment to write. We had a very welcomed holiday on Frazer Island where we explored places with funny names like Indian Heads and Lake Wabby. We did a bit of 4 x4 - ing and I decided that it was quite over rated. By the time we got back to the holiday flats I decided a kidney belt would have been a good accessory that morning. We endulged in white sand between our toes and swam in turquoise coloured water. I returned home refreshed to find eight fluffy ducklings had been born while we were away. Buttercup and Daisy are as protective as all good mothers should be. I must look terribly frightning to them as today while changing their water they both flew up at me. Luckily I had a thick pair of denims on and all I felt was a small pinch on the back of my leg. They are possessive and rather aggressive as most new parents all are. I will have to find homes for my new little critters as I can't keep ten ducks. Spring has sprung with the first newborn animals at Pine Haven!
