HEADLINE - Bird crack squad try to save drowning plastic duck!

Your story made me smile Jen.

Glad to have made you smile Klahanie, the poor duck is still on his side in the water so maybe they weren't such a crack team after all :-). I found the duck at the back of one the border. It was so nice watching these birds in the bird bath, it put a smile on my face just watching them.

That's really sweet ...

Thank you Shirley, it made my day seeing them there.

We had to move our bird feeding station, it took the birds about a week to find the new place!

I had the bird bath in my last house but next door had 3 cats and I've got one that I think thats probably why it was never used but here, being quite rural, Star the only cat around and is 14yrs so think the birds feel happier.

Our cat only ever seems interested in catching Mice ... pretty sure there are some living in a shed in the garden behind ours. She sits by the fence and stares at it for hours ... dopey cat! :o)

Star is dreadful for catching thing, back in Kent she would bring home baby rabits, birds and mice then let them go in the house. I ended up putting bells on her collar. In the end she ended up with 3 as one bell made no difference and she stiĺl was releasing all sorts of things. Hated doing that to her but got fed up of then trying to catch what she brought home. She brought a mouse home the other week and dropped it at hubby's feet as he was coming down the stairs. Lucky it ran into the dinning room and not the front room and I managed to put a glass over it. I suppose it stops life getting boring, bless her :-)

They figure if the duck likes it,then its a cool place to hang out.
Birds of a feather..
