Releasing the ducks

Today was the day we finally decided the ducks were ready to go and start their new lives! We have had them for the last few months now. We have a river, well I say river, more of a puddle at the back of our house. This is the 'river' they were all born on but sadly they got bought to us. Ducklings can very easily be separated from their mothers and can't survive on their own.  Not a year goes by where we don't have at least one duckling.
They are easy to look after, they just need a bit of help with eating for the first few days but they soon get the hang of it.
