Ducks |
Since Tuesday March 20th a couple of ducks decided to settle down near the pond. |
I provide them with breakfast, lunch and dinner in the form of a crushed rusk mixed with water and chicken morning food. |
In return they keep the pond free of filamentous algae. |

After a few hours they already disappeared from the pond and the garden |
On Sunday May 13th I spotted them in the Frans Halskade near the cemetary |
|
and later on in the Burgemeester Elsenlaan: |
