Sunday safari.

Mallards are frequent visitors to the garden.   This poor female, has been chased around by so many suitors during the past week, she often comes to the garden for a little peace and quiet.
When I fed her this morning I noticed she had difficulty walking.     She seems to have a problem with her right leg.      Nella has been confined to the front garden......for the mallards safety.

I am a little concerned for her as we have a family of stoats in the garden at the moment.
Hopefully she will fly away to one of the natural ponds, and find some sanctuary there.

It is still raining...........I think I am starting to grow webbed feet :)

Happy Sunday safari.
