Duck Count
Had a quick count of the ducks on the lower river last week. Approximately 172.
This does not take into account others still up river and some in garden ponds around the town.
We had about 45 new surviving ducklings this season, and possibly some still to show up from further afield. We certainly lost 6 females and 3 drakes that I know of. Looks like the numbers will settle at around 200.
