A Duck Named Ping

The other day our friend Alice found a motherless duckling whilst she was walking her dog.

As she has a cat as well as a dog she decided the best thing was to find a home for it quick smart.
This is how we became the family for the said duckling which is now named Ping after Mum’s favourite childhood storybook character.

The photo shows Ping on his first night here. He slept in a tuff tub with his new friend, Baby Bear.

The next morning Ruby and I modified an old apple bin so Ping has a permanent home.

This delightful little thing is so cute and I never thought I’d say that about a duck!
