THE MALLARD DRAKE FOUND SOMETHING TO EAT - HOPE IT'S NOT THE ROOTS OF OUR WATER HAWTHORN PLANTS. LAST YEAR THE FEMALE ATE UP ONE OF OUR TWO DEBRIS-EATING SNAILS . . .
HOPE THE MALLARD DRAKE STAYS AND BRINGS IN HIS FEMALE COUNTERPART AGAIN THIS YEAR . . .
MANY BIRDS STOP, LIKE THIS JUNCO, TO PERCH ON THIS OLD SCHOOL BELL ON OUR FRONT PORCH TO VIEW THE FRONT GARDEN
