feeding the ducks


so i went out for a walk with Will, my boyfriend, and we went to the river to feed the ducks

on the way we stopped off to buy a 55p loaf of bread and some snacks that we could eat on the way

so when we got there it was slightly disapointing to see that there were no ducks to bloody feed

throwing bread at no one in particular one by one they came waddling up to us and nicking the bread that wed thrown in

one duck in particular came waddling up behind us and quacked in our ears, after some pursuasion from Will i held out a piece of bread to it and it gobbled it up from my hands

thats was until i accidently gave it a piece that was a bit hard and big (no rude intentions) and it got it stuck


it went away to what we think was its nest and started feeding several more birds when a mandarin appeared

it was a reall pretty female and was very shy, not coming too close to us

so Will left me at the river by myself to go catch his camera from home and to go and by another loaf of bread

when he got back we had a joint effort in photographing the bird (basically i was feeding it Will was photographing it)

sitting back in our little spot the very friendly duck that had fed from our hands had arrived again and after feeding it a bit more however as we turned around we heard a rather loud squelching noise. when we turned around we noticed the duck had pooed literally centimetres from where my shoes were

that was lucky we both thought as we tryed not to laugh too loud and scare th birds away

so overall very eventful trip to the river

oh and my feet now have blisters from my sandals

keep in touch

love ya
