I didn't go to Princess Peaches Jubilee garden party. Somebody had to stay behind to keep an eye on the ducklings so I offered to do it. It was a good way of having a quiet afternoon to myself. We all slept for most of the time and Daisy didn't quack any noisy orders to her brood s
o it was very peaceful.Her family is growing like mad. They won't be here much longer then we'll be able to clean up my patio and I can go out if I want to. Probably won't in this weather. 
I'm quite proud of the way the chicks deal with that blackbird. They chase him then eat his chopped grape. He doesn't run at them the way he runs at me when I try it. They gang up on him. Safety in numbers I suppose. I enjoy watching the antics from the back doorstep.
