snails
and slugs are keenly sought by ducks.
i had
ducks for years when we first moved in because i cried when i saw the whole of
my young seedlings eaten in just a few nights.
gradually people dogs attacked and killed our ducks and so i figured that
i would just keep winged and suspicious poultry such as chickens and
geese.
but
now, the slug and snail popluation is slowly building. it is time once
again for ducks.
hopefully the ducks will hang out with the geese for protection, i might
even try to trick the geese into raising the ducks. and then by nature the
ducks will
start behaving like inverse submarines, their bills searching for slugs and snails under anything they can forage through. April
