Sad news to report, mes amis. Mr Fox had Donald, one of our white ducks, for Christmas dinner. He had Daisy the week before...and poor old Fatty, my black and white duck has disappeared as well. I am so sorry about Fatty because we had him the longest and I did think he had his wits about him with regard to the fox. We still have six young white ducks but we are keeping them in the big shed until the weather gets better as the pond does freeze up and Mr Fox can walk over it.
Donald and Daisy Duck - no longer with us |
