Four pictures from my evening rounds of the ducks in our pond, including Bert and Rémy on the floating island. 🦆

Video: ducks on the new floating wooden island. 📹🦆
The Micro.blog challenge word(s) for day 18 are “at home”. Our ducks seem quite at home with their new floating pond island. 🏝🦆📷 #mbfeb
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 15 is “reflection”. A reflection in the pond of the ducks sleeping on the bank, amongst melting icy residue of the snow. ❄️🦆📷 #mbfeb
On the homestead blog: some photos of icy branches, icicles, ducks, and hummingbirds. ❄️🦆🐦❄️
A couple of aerial photos from my drone of the snowy landscape around our pond and wider homestead. Not a huge amount of snow so far. You can see the new pond island in the center of the pond, and ducks nearby. ❄️🦆
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 9 is “muddy”. Guess what happens when you add dirt and water together? Some muddy glop. But great for the base of the new duck island. 🏝🦆📷 #mbfeb
On the homestead blog: yesterday I posted about installing the new floating duck island. Today, some additional pictures of that process, as captured by the two cameras that watch the pond. 🔨🏝🦆
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 8 is “hope”. An easy one for me today: I hope that the new island continues to float, and the ducks use it. They were just swimming near it, so don’t seem too freaked out by it. 🏝🦆📷 #mbfeb
