She was very jelous and at first just tried to be the cool auntie who helped out. But slowly she worked her way in so that they were ever so subtlety fighting over who the ducklings belonged to. One day on the mother ducks watch, over 1/2 the ducklings manged to get in the little wading pool, but could not get back out and drowned.

A few days later the mother duck was killed by the neighbors dog - but the ducklings had already bonded with their new mother.<br /><br />-ChadAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-44539625592609057522011-03-25T08:06:39.543-07:002011-03-25T08:06:39.543-07:00Goose victory...
