Meh, circle of life, we lived on a pond with plenty of gators so who didn't see that coming?

Sucks about the cigar, but the glad the duck is ok. I think I'm more impressed with the dog getting 9 squirrels though she must be quick.
I am with Kayla on this one, baby ducks really piss me off and I hate them all. You go girl, I got cha back! We don't need no baby ducks!!!
That is what you mean, right?
Well, add 2 rabbits (she let these live, but caught them!) and another opossum (dead) to her list as of this morning.
Don't let your dog feel too bad, Maxine was living on the street for a couple of years before I found her so she had to hunt for her food, that makes a dog scrappy as heck! She hasn't caught a squirrel in the past year, that COULD be because I give them a loud knock on the window before I let her out, or because she is turning into a domesticated dog...
Knock on the window - I can't tell him that ! I quietly open the back door so he can sneak out onto the porch. When he hits the doggie door that's the first inkling they have that he's coming and still nothing. And even with me standing there cheering him on with a hearty "go get em" !
Our lawn is too small and they can quickly get up on or thru the fence so he'll never get one, but I think he appreciates the support and hope I give him
So you going to update us on the duckling's condition ?
My last dog was a Boston Terrier. She passed on a bit over 4 years ago.
She made one capture that was truly incredible. She came inside through her dog door one afternoon and was making a funny noise in her mouth/throat and she wouldn't open her mouth. She kept head-butting me in the shin and scratching at me to get my attention. When I finally gave her my attention she opened her mouth and out flew an undamaged hummingbird!
It took quite a while to get the hummingbird outta the house, and Kibble took a few days to forgive me for releasing it.
This thread reminds me of the time I was fishing a fast moving creek. The water was high from all the rain. Next thing I know, there's a boat full of ducks coming down the creek and were about to go under the bridge which didn't have much clearance because of the high water. I screamed at them to watch out for the bridge. All of a sudden the duck with the captains hat on turns around and yells at the other ducks. He yelled "PEOPLE"...
