So, he tells me, since they are no longer endangered ducks --- they are actually nuisance ducks, and as such, I can move the nest, destroy the nest, kill the mama ----- jeepers. Anyone for duck stew and scrambled eggs?
From one extreme to the other --- first don't touch, don't feed, to go ahead and destroy them. Of course, I would never ever do that.
But I'm thinking, what's this? The Nazi Duck Police? I mean, just because they are not "pure" they suddenly become a nuisance??? Doesn't seem very humane at all to me... And seems to me, this is just nature taking its course and by the way, isn't this the same agency that is importing Texas Pumas to breed with Florida Panthers because the panther is endangered?
Well, as Bob would say, "whatever".
Louise (mama duck) is still nesting comfortably. And since no longer "endangered" I am feeding her, trying to gain her trust so that, when time comes, we can hopefully transport her & ducklings to a nearby lake:

When you have a lot of feces next to and in the pool you may change your mind.
That's going to be so much fun watching watching those little ducklings grow and start swimming
I think you made the right decision about their future😊👍🏻.
Pictures to come, I hope!
