From what I hear I'm glad that we have the ducks 'contained' in their pen rather than ranging through the veggies (I'd be too concerned about foxes anyway).<br /><br />Yes, John, next year I think I will do a bigger block of sweetcorn in the tunnel (incorporating some current path)and may erect a windbreak south of the tunnel to stop the wind being quite so strong as it enters the tunnel. Mind you, the corn is all going great now.<br /><br />The ducks are STILL moulting by the way, but those eggs will be worth the wait.Ferris Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04112537164554514642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9040424243130404918.post-32883602609434470662009-06-26T11:17:49.030+01:002009-06-26T11:17:49.030+01:00lovely blog..... and ducks!!!

My broad beans have survived the ducklings, unlike the leeks & beetroots - but it's impossible to feel cross with them. I read somewhere that ducks are supposed to be a gardener's friend, but they obviously hadn't met my muscovies!! Younger son's comment was 'hurray, less of mum's veg to eat!', not being a veg lover he doesn't share my enthusiasm for freshly harvested home grown veg. Wishing you all the best in your endeavours - house, garden & animals.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06729233060266402303noreply@blogger.com
