I looked out the window one day and discovered that there were a pair of ducks in our backyard. While I have seen a lot of wildlife in the backyard over the years, this was the first time that I have seen ducks.
I was amazed as to how close I could get to the ducks before they got nervous and moved away. And, they seemed to hang around the yard all afternoon. We suspected that maybe they were going to nest in the area so we kept a close watch on the cats.
A couple of days later, they were both found dead in the road. Apparently, they got hit by a truck. I guess they were a little too tame.
