:cool: No matter how manly a man you are ducklings are cute:P
I agree with you you big softy. It pisses me off seeing the hawks get in among them but that is nature I guess.Quote:

I suppose one good thing about all this bloody rain is that ponds and rivers are full when the ducks started nesting.
They seem too have an average of 13 eggs in a clutch

Jess found this nest,just hope the predators stay away.
if you are taking your dog to the area's they are nesting you may as well stomp on those eggs.
Whys that Kawhai? The duck is still on her nest and dogs aren't going back near the ponds. Duck was about 1 metre away from the track when Jess smelt her.Dog was called off and duck and eggs are fine.Quote:

puke's seem to devestate them pretty well.... sadly, I wonder being that one's not allowed to shoot puke's in some area's if it would be legal to trap them in live capture traps and then just go release em in a park?
Nah just shoot them and call it pest control cause you can't find any other way to stop them shitting in your water troughs..Quote:

hmmm,I'll grab 100 rounds for the AR and go do my bit on the weekend
Agree that the eels will be taking advantage of the mobile dinner service. They are quite partial to young ducklings.Quote:

Dundee Id be seriously thinkin of feedin those big slimy fuckers a good dose of "powergel mayonnaise" to go with the duckling fricasee!.a sort of DIY syrian campaign dundee style.
unlike Obama &co and those procrastinating UN pricks you can simply "get on with it"
I flies through the air ,me head in a haze,
Dundees little ducklings served with strange mayonnaise!!,
grabbed me a ducklin,
some sauce with a fizz,
now i hangs in a tree ,
with me head in a tizz,
I aches all over ,
such a sad bizz!
Now mr dundee If i falls to the grass ,
I'llslither back,
stick ya ducks up ya a..e!!:o
Very clever kotuku:P
Well get your bloody snorkel on
