Albert had a quiet, restful day today after so much activity on Easter. He
spent most of the day just sitting, resting, munching on his food and
drinking (and sometimes sitting) in his water.
In the afternoon he was introduced to one of the female Pekin (white,
domestic) ducks from the outdoor pen that needed to come in for some R & R.
He and and his new roommate just sat at opposite sides of the pen and quacked to
each other in their duck language. Since she came in the late afternoon their
interaction did not go much farther than casual quacking before it was lights
out for the night.
Albert would like to remind everyone that spring is time for his wild
cousins to have their babies. He hopes that anyone finding an orphaned baby of
any kind will first contact their nearest licensed rehabilitator to see what
would be the proper action to take.
