Went to the park today for our regular walk and walked round our normal route - 3km - before coming to the duck pond.

As frequently, a dog harassing the ducks and swans, despite the numerous notices saying ‘All dogs must be on a lead’.

Reminded me of a walk earlier in the year, spring, when despite the threatening clouds we walked round,

Dog in the pond trying like mad to grab a baby white duck.

Suddenly torrential rain and the owner got his dog out of he pond. One of the dog’s paws clogged up with duck feathers.

A down paw.

    Haha! Unexpected and made me giggle 🤣. Ruff luck on that dog (but even ruffer on the duckling).

    Good one, I had to laugh despite my concern for the baby duck! :-)
