Feeling Ducky

 Yesterday, while on my 'hood walk, a male Mallard Duck greeted me as a strode past.

Of course, I stopped immediately, and cooed at Mr. Duck.

My neighbor, seeing my conversation, told me that Mr. and Mrs. Duck had been visiting her yard for years, and she'd filled a blow-up kiddie pool with water for the pair to enjoy.

Not my image; found online.
Now that's my type of neighbor, who gives a handout...or a pool...to wildlife.

Wished I'd snapped a photo, and will probably go back to visit Mr. and Mrs. Duck someday soon.

Thankful for all who understand that humans aren't the only beings that need succor on This Earth.

Raising the status of animals to improve welfare standards around the globe.

Last night, I learned that a neighbor has been feeding a juvenile raccoon for months.

She said there were two small raccoons without a parent in that tree, and now only one appears for meals.

Raccoons are a native species to Michigan, but are not endangered.

In general, any wildlife can be harmed by becoming acclimated to humans, which is NOT the goal of World Animal Day.

And yet, anyone reading this post is an animal lover, and will go to great lengths to help any critter.

The world is a huge place, so being kind to all of the creatures, great and small, can only be a good thing.
