I was watering picking my raspberry bushes the other day and heard really loud breathing. At first I thought it was somebody, but I looked around and there wasn't another person. I thought oh no, snake. Nope, there was a mother mallard duck that decided to build a nest underneath my loaded raspberry bush. We were thinking of kicking her out, but she stayed there so much of the time. we waited for her to move to look at the nest, Adam couldn't see any eggs so I was going to move it, but I found two eggs hidden underneath some debris. Luckily we didn't bother her too much and she came back to take care of them. I asked Lucas what we should name her and he came up with Goop. So here is goop the duck, the closest thing my kids will probably ever have to a pet. I don't mind sharing a few raspberries nad strawberries with her, but we won't be feeding her house food, we don't want to make her depend on us. It has been fun for us to check up on her. We are waiting for little ducklings now.
