'Have you given her a name yet?
Err - no.
Suggestions to date have been:
- Bill (strangely by more than one person)
- Daffy
- Ducky
Do you have any suggestions? I throw it open to you!
Nine beautifully 'duck egg' blue....errr......duck eggs
(erhem - so that's where that particular shade of blue comes from ooOOoooh!!!)
doh
And, just a final sharing of a moment from yesterday.
In between the showers and before having to go into work , the boys and I took giddy dog for a walk. When I took this picture, it really brought it home how lucky we are to live in a village with fields and farms immediately out our doorstep.
Then my blissfully smug feeling at our surroundings was rudely shattered when we were 'Oiyed' at by a grumpy farmer who thought we were a bunch of oikes off to terrorise his sheep and then moments later another dog decided to mug giddy dog with ensuring vicious growls and flying fur lumps - well really!!
Ah, village life - love it....................
** Mongrel duck is a mallard x 'something' with a white bib, our village seems to have a fair few of this particular 'unique' variety.
Bill...short for Wilhemina of course!
ReplyDeleteGreat minds etc! My boss who originally suggested Bill has since extended to Wilhemina too!
ReplyDeleteOh, I thought of that too but was too slow. Now it looks like I'm copying :)
ReplyDeleteMy youngest suggested Jemima, as in Puddleduck.
Am thinking of a name! Not seen 'my duck' so have concluded she has moved in with you!
ReplyDeleteAs for a dog 'fighting' with yours, I think I recognise where you walked and a dog there (many years ago) was not very friendly either! As you say the delights of the countryside.
? Molly Mallard

ps You will never beleive this but the word verification is BILLst!!
Hi - youngest and I fancied Millicent when we were discussing it - or Maddy the Mallard? Whatever you decide, you are very lucky to have her choose your garden for her secret nest. :>) xx
ReplyDeleteoooh, I love that nest of eggs... it's really inspiring. As for names... I would go with Dabble♥
ReplyDeleteps you are soooooo lucky to own a duck
