Success!

The last of my duckling saga! Six healthy strong ducklings hatched. One got stuck and the egg went cold. Dan to the rescue...........a few nights on a hot water bottle and under a heat lamp then back with Mum. So 7 out of 7 and all going well. A joy to watch as usual!
The little last one.........sitting next to his thermometer.......94 degrees constant!!!
 Fast asleep!
Under the ever watchful eye of everyone else!!!
Lining up for a paddle!
 My turn!!
The one on the left is the little one from above  only minutes after l put him back out with the others.. Being looked after by Valentine. The first one to be hatched!
Altogether. Well done Peg............well done Me!!!
And it's time for the Public Holiday Lillies to raise their strange little heads out of the bare earth!!! Geoff and l are never sure if they are called Easter or Christmas Lillies....hence our 'own' name for them! Works for us!
