The Mighty Ducks!

Mandrake keeps a vigil watch while Gertrude has some corn kernels for breakfast.
The ducks have now appeared in the yard two days in a row.
I've been advised that my yard is a strong candidate for them to build a nest here!
In fact, they may have already done so according to my expert. 
I'll look around.
