The day couldn't have dawned finer
and as the grass-cutter moved in to the back field last Sunday we braced ourselves for action.
At moments like this I always think it's handy to have a Gamekeeper stashed away who can plunge into the pen and emerge with a handful of ducks in one go, where Bookhound and I would have been chasing them around one at a time for hours. I think the pictures tell their own story and Julian, Dick, Ann, George and Timmy were off so fast I only caught a shot of one, probably Ann. Reconnaisance during the week and we hear they are still swimming around and they are still five.
