August 8th, 2009 A day later
Saturday was hard steady rain. We went down to the golf course and the release pond. The ducks were not there except for a few feathers. We walked deeper into the course where we spied five ducks at another pond. Two flew off right away as we began to approach. Shortly thereafter a third one flew off. The remaining two allowed a closer approach. I closed my umbrella to be less threatening. Nevertheless the last two flew off. Were they our birds? Was that third one also one of ours?
