Duck Release

ByJon

Early yesterday morning before the rest of the world was up we did a quick duck release. This handsome boy has been with us a few weeks and really couldn’t wait to see the back of us. We can never tell a wild animal why we are putting needles in them, tube feeding them, giving them foul tasting meds or have them in captivity.

We always, always aim to release animals back into the wild……..including that ‘little owl’ that we released quite a few weeks ago that insists on coming for his tea every night!!……go, will you!!!
