Rescued Ducklings Progress
The five ducklings have survived the past week's high tides and integrated well with the other ducks in the river. They are learning every day from the other ducks, the warning calls, who's who, and all the goings on between the sexes.
They still stay together as a family, and at one point I saw their Mum close by - I would not be at all surprised if she recognizes her offspring !
Sari and Jo are still close, with the duckling mortality rate it's important that the females survive.
