for the last week this pair of mated mallard ducks have been flying in, staying a while and then leaving. As far as I know there is no fresh water pond near my house so I can't figure out where they are coming from. they seem to like the birdseed we are putting in the feeders. they came back again tonight for a brief period & then they flew off again. this is so odd. I wonder if they could belong to someone. they don't seem frightened by my husband and I & they look beautifully groomed. Any thoughts?You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Naa, they do not belong to anyone. Saw similar behavior with two muscovy ducks resting underneath cars in a hotel with no pond.
