Lavender Brown

We had a domestic duck that showed up at one of the bigger ponds near us a couple years ago, I tried to help her out with some food there since I knew she was domestic and probably expected it, and did. The Muscovy at our pond would occasionally make a trip over to that pond and one day after a few months, she followed him back. The Muscovy was an asshole but she hung out with him, even had a couple loyal mallard drakes that hung with her. Made it longer than I thought she would, a couple years at our pond. But… I guess a raccoon managed to catch her last night… πŸͺ¦ Lavender.

View near the ground. A dark green pond can be seen in the background. In the foreground a clump of a bush slight blocks the view. Several mallard ducks and a single brown domestic duck and be seen.

Sierra Nevada, Asheville NC. A black and white photo looking in to the barrel aging room. Barrels can be seen lining both sides of the walls.

New visitors to our pond today. Four Black-Bellied Whistling ducks showed up. They hung out in the shade until the evening and even came over to where I was visiting with the local Mallards. Four Black-Bellied Whistling Ducks standing on green grass.

Have what I hope is a usable workflow to post here from iOS/iPadOS. Probably post more about it soon.

Time to move on and move on I’ve done.

Excised Eero devices from my network a while back. Replaced them with a Firewalla and Deco mesh. Highly recommend.
