After 3 months rehab, the injured Drake bitten by a dog, has flown back to the riverside this morning.
The other injured Drake flew back about a week ago.
This now leaves Disco our resident female on her own, I had hoped that one would have stayed with her over the winter. Both Drakes fully recovered, moulted, and grew new plumage. The call of the wild and blustery winds, proved too enticing to stay with Disco in the limited garden space.
They may well have mates in the river, keen to reunite perhaps.
After Disco reared 15 ducklings, they have both been company since their successful release.
Disco will have to content herself with my company until next years breeding season - or another Duck casualty in need of Trust care.
