The air of depression that descended on me after Faith's death has lifted somewhat, with the arrival of 7 new ducklings on the river.
I also have faith's 7 ducklings to worry about, and how best to rear them successfully.
I have also been cheered up by Woody who turns up daily and comes into the kitchen for his sunflower seeds and lettuce, he is starting to develop the white neck flash which apparently appears at 6 months.
Para the paraplegic pigeon also turns up daily along with 2 other pigeons that I rescued over the past year, it reminds me that not all my rescue attempts are failure's.
Our half yearly Trust meeting will be held later this week, and we will pick the winners of the wildlife photo competition, among other items to be discussed.

After nearly 2 months I decided it was time to let Woody the Wood pigeon go, and take its chances in the wild. I let him go yesterday after a good meal of sunflower seeds and lettuce, his favourite foods.
It was a privilege to rear him and experience the joy that comes between man and bird, I will treasure the memory.
Para the spinal injury pigeon decided to come back where the food and board suits him best, he was in the aviary this morning after only one night away.
Looks like I'll have to keep him as a permanent pal.
