is what I call the ducks with. To distinguish from, "Chook, chook, here chooky-chook." Which is obviously for the chickens.
Although Mama Black Hen now responds to both. I think she's a little concerned. Her babies are only a month old, yet they are almost bigger than her.
And they don't fly. And their feet make flappy sounds when they walk, sorry, waddle.
Her babies also have a strange fascination with water. They drink alot. And they squirt it through their nostrils. 
In fact they'll put their whole heads under water.Ducklings are funny. But I don't think Mama Black Hen is amused.
Awwwww. I always love the images of your farm life.
ReplyDeleteOh that poor confused hen!! Gorgeous ducks though...

ReplyDeleteOhhhh..that poor little mother hen..
Don't be too concerned about Mama Black Hen - now she's abandoning maternal duties, but that means she gets to dally with the rooster ....!
