A bit off topic but, we had a baby duck here today who lost her mother. She/he had been chirping and I fed her. But she was still unhappy and we were worried she might not make it through the night if we didn't try to rescue her. So we went looking for her mama and the other babies and found them and sure enough she had one missing. So we came back and caught this baby and I held her in my lap and we took her in the boat back to her mother. I can't believe how calmy she sat in my lap. She hardly moved. It was like she knew what we were doing. I thought being in the boat would scare her to death but she was fine. We dropped her off with her mother and brothers and sisters. What a wonderful experience it was!
How did you know the mother duck was missing a baby?
