Duck V Duck

Every now and then these little critters end up in the garden. I  don't mind too much. They swallow a few slugs, prune a few tips off and thoroughly enjoying rootling around in the flower beds and on the lawn.

THIS time however they somehow made it up onto the veranda and met..................The Tin Duck!!!

The girls didn't seem to mind him too much  (maybe they thought he was rather fine!) and soon hopped off back into the beds to greener pastures............but the Drake wasn't quite too sure............!!!

There WAS  a bit of a standoff.............

Some close eye ball to eye ball type stuff...................

Real close...............

And a few walk bys.................

Until he truly felt all was safe and he was still indeed King Of The Roost!!

Well defended Roger The Penguin!!
