White Duck Gone
Less than 24 hours and the white duck released yesterday is gone. As feared it was a prime target for Mink or Otters, I had hoped that safety in numbers would prevail, and that it would survive long enough to learn of all the river predators. It seems the way of the world, anything that's different or stands out gets picked on.
The remaining ducklings are still alive and no doubt witnessed the loss of the white sibling.
Looks like my decision to keep the last remaining white duck was a prudent one.
