I think it was more fearful of the other ducks than it was of us but it did find a spot in the water away from the others. Although I didn't see it in a fight (it was already on the bridge when we got there), that's what it looked like had happened.Carverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05968919406427737503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6307160126692180257.post-46726990052763524662008-07-09T22:17:00.000-04:002008-07-09T22:17:00.000-04:00I eXpect many can relate to his plight, on some le...I eXpect many can relate to his plight, on some level...
