I went to a Local Wildfowl Park the other Day, The weather as you can imagine was very poor as it was late in the Afternoon.
The Reason I went was to have a reckie mission for what may of e an interest to me.
The place is called washington wildfowl (England ) and it is the Home of an abundance of Wildlife and Resident Birds.
I was pretty exited about wha I saw, and I am looking foreward tp my return, I just wanted to see if you could Namre some of the Birds ! [thumb]628517[/thumb]

I believe you have given some of the male ducks female names (and possibly vice versa). Fortunately for you, none of them have lawyers....yet.

I am not worried - any lawyer they hire will certainly be a real quack. Besides, I didn't mean to ruffle any feathers.

I thought it would go swimmingly, but I guess I am just bird-brained.

I shouldn't worry - apparently some Ducks are happy to go Eider way :- )

Well Done on naming the Ducks.
It Really is a Fantastic Set Up They Have with Heron Colonies, Wader Birds and Feeding Stations for Finches ect.
Cheers.
