An SOS.......the dog and the duck....

Had an urgent request to babysit yesterday, which meant quite an early rise, as I had a distance to travel to play 'grandma'.  

I thought I'd share the glorious sunrise from yesterday.

Our little lady just loves animals, and has quite an odd couple when it comes to pets.  Her dog and duck are good mates believe it or not.  I tried and tried to get a photograph of them 'together', but it wasn't happening yesterday.  I think the duck has the upper hand!!!!


As you can see the duck is in 'duck heaven' happily spending it's days in a large dam quite close to the house.  I will keep calling it an 'it'.  It goes by the name of Molly, but has grown to be quite large, and I have a sneaking suspicion that it might be a male.  I haven't been around ducks for a long time, so please anyone, help me out here!!!!

What a beautiful sunrise. Compensation if you have to be up that early!!

Love the dog and duck (we have a pub of that name in a nearby town). No help at all about the male/female state of the duck though I'm afraid.
