QuackStar

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

QuackStar was a funny duck.  He decided to join our family on May 31, 2009.  We were pretty startled when a day old duckling ran up to us!  We quickly became good friends.  He would follow us around the house, feet slapping on the floor, bill vacuuming lint and crumbs.  He loved water!

Baby QuackStar:

This is a photo of him looking cute:

Here is the last picture taken of him.  A friend took it the day he flew away to be a wild duck.

I miss him!

Poultry show!

We went to a poultry show today!  Here are a few of the millions of pictures I took!


This Call duck was adorable!


A true Ameraucana (bantam)! She was very interested and alert. Lovely to see.


I just loved this Delaware bantam!
I have plenty of pictures left to post but resizing takes time and not resizing takes space so you’ll have to be patient.

Okay, this blog is looking good! Time to write something!

After some very basic customizing, I think it’s time to tell you a little about my birds!  I have 14 hens ( if I did the math right!) and one adorable rooster.  I also had a duck for a while but he decided to leave.  He was cute.

The hen in the picture is Yikes. She’s old and evil but I love her anyway!
