Goodbye Tuesday

Tuesday flew to freedom 3 days ago. Very sad but happy also. Miss him loads.

7 weeks 5 days

Tuesday I am almost certain is a boy. He has still got a very yellow beak and it is turning slightly green which my duck book says indicates that the bird is a male. He is really growing his feathers on his wings now and is beginning to flap around but still not getting very far.

We got him a big crate as a pond and he loves it. This is his routine ...

Enjoying one of his first snails. If you have a snail problem then a duck is your solution :)



He is a bit of a camera flirt which doesn't help me get good ones:

Uni Officially Finished

Not much to say except ...

PHEW and WOOP WOOP

Contortionist

Tuesday has decided that dancing is not for him. Instead he wants to be a contortionist.

Always important to do a good cardiovascular warm up before doing any stretches:

For the intermediate contortionist:







DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME:







And to finish shake it all out:



On a side note, look at his feathers:

Dancing

You put your left foot it:



Your left foot out:



In, out, in, out and shake it all about.

You put your right foot in:



Your right foot out:



In, out, in, out and shake it all about.


Now, just all confused:
