The Courtyard

Ducks have been laying eggs in our courtyard for over 20 years!

The courtyard makes the perfect place to lay eggs but not the best place to raise chicks. Check out this video of the momma duck taking her babies for their first swim.

You can find the ducks in the courtyard most of the time.
