Day 138.

Bush eggs: one. Nest box eggs: none. Feed hopper: full/empty. Perplexing matters: one.

Oh, this is just great – as if the ducks aren’t trouble enough! No sooner had the female person filled up our feed hopper (and the ducks’ one) than seven, SEVEN, scheming pukekos came and cleaned us out! At least the ducks are kind of amiable in their stupidity. Those pukekos are devious and hateful – they’re like angels of gloom. I’ve heard that pukekos play a game called Chicken that involves standing in the middle of the death strip and getting squashed by cars. Why would the game be called Chicken? Are you the winner or the loser of the game when a car squashes you? What’s the point?
