THE VILLAGE POND............

Lovely blog.
Nice to have the wildlife on the pond :o)

Lovely photo's Holly,
Not sure about daddy duck, my eye's aren't what they once were but if he's anything like Daffy Duck then it's prob. a cheese burger he's trying to hide from Mrs. Duck.

Sorry, I think its the heat its got to my brain......LOL

H & K's.........Ian

Lovely blog, Holly. So glad you had your camera with you.
Was there only one duckling? Never mind, it's good to see him/her anyway.

Lovely blog Holly. Shame about the pond drying up. We have had a fair amount of rain in Essex, but everywhere is , like where you are, very dry everywhere! I think it's the strong wind and hot sun!

Iv noticed it being more windy this Summer 2 Paul ? Its starnge dont u think ? :/

Those trees around the pond look nice and cool. I'd like to be there now.

Perhaps we could have a picnic, Hywel

Oh yes. That would be nice :o)

Thanks for sharing your walk with us it looks so nice & peaceful.

What a lovely peaceful spot Hollyeves.Your photos are lovely.and thenks for sharing this.Think the drake is just having a well earned rest !

Thanks for all your nice comments... glad you all enjoyed the the walk round the pond......glad i did it that day as its been to hot to walk far the last 2 days although we have a nice sea breeze.......garden could do with a nice downpour.....still not sure about daddy duck.....its probably just his feathers i can see.....there was only one baby there.... i know we get foxes round the pond and they have killed babies in the past... hope it hasnt had the rest of hers.......

Windy, yes, Jacque. I think it's bveen windy all spring summer and last winter here. I t very seldom seems to drop. I'm sure it's much windier now than it used to be years ago. Our garden wall was blown down in Jan 2007 so we had it fixed but instead of fence on top as before, we put trellis but a few weeks ago one of the piers was broken again by the wind. It's extremely strong on our corner where we live!

Enjoyed your blog and photos, Holly. We have ducks on our village pond (doesn't seem as big as yours) and lots of the ducklings don't survive. It's very sad.

Glad you like it Gee19....
