The Ducks Are in the Barn

The Pond is Frozen

 

For the better part of a week, the ducks have guarded a small opening in the ice, rarely coming to the barn for food because it meant a trek across the ice. This was the first morning when the ice finally covered the entire surface, and the ducks, Mr. and Mrs. had no choice but to join the other animals in the barn. They have made the adjustment to their wading pool at the front of the barn, without difficulty, and made a couple new friends in the process. Not to worry, Spring and open water are just around the corner!
