    Just thought I’d share this with everyone

    Woke up at 4 this morning and looked out the window because the moon was so bright and I could see something standing in the middle of the pond on the wall between the main pond and planted pond, then it started to slowly move, I thought Heron, so grabbed my dressing gown and ran downstairs to find a duck happily swimming around in the moonlight.
    Bloody thing shit the life out of me.

    I used to have ducks and their ducklings every year until we got the cat.
    It was nice but they used to shit EVERYWHERE!
