Close encounters of the donkey kind
Posted by Morning Bray under Donkeys, Ducks | Tags: donkeys, ducks, Muscovies |[49] Comments
The weather was beautiful over the weekend, so we decided to take the ducklings outside for the first time.
Hillary, who we think will become Edmund, was an excited blur most of the time.
Hello, Harriet.
They all seemed to enjoy exploring their new world.
All of the sudden though, unidentified creatures appeared from nowhere.
Hazel (who we think will become Jake): Nobody move!
Edmund: If we don’t move, they won’t see us.
Fergus: Umm, mom? What are those?
Nigel: They sure are funny looking things.
Augusta (who we think will become Augustus, or Gus for short): Who are you calling funny looking, mister?
Hello, Beatrice.
Beatrice: Holy cow, there’s another one coming!
Me: That’s Patrick. You’re going to love Patrick.
I wish I could have known what everyone was thinking.
Bernard: Mamma, why are they making those funny peeping sounds?
Me: They’re ducklings, boys. It looks like we’re going to have three girls (Beatrice, Harriet and Isabelle) and three boys (Edmund, Gus and Jake).
Me: I hope you all are going to get along just fine.
Me: Let’s get your first outside group photo.
From left to right: Edmund, Harriet, Gus, Isabelle, Beatrice and Jake.

The driver of nature

Water is the driver of nature.
– Leonardo da Vinci
As of last week, the Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District is moving water again.
Irrigation season has begun.
Change is coming and excitement is in the air.
There’s a party going on…
…and everyone’s invited.
And while some may stay longer than others…
…everyone’s having a great time.
