It takes a village to raise a child. That age old adage seems to cross over species lines as well. We have baby water fouls, especially mallard ducks and geese right now and I watch the mother geese join their babies into 1 flock so they can watch and protect them better. Mallards on the other hand do not join together and if a lost chick tries to join the family the mother will drown it. She is ensuring her babies have the best and she does not give 1 damn about that lost baby. Nature amazes and destroys me every day on the lake, but I can think of no place I would rather work. I'm immersed in the cycle of life and although sometimes sad it keeps you grounded in a way nothing else can.
May your days be filled with love and light
And your night be kissed by the moon!
