Stood with baited breath whilst......

Post by Gwenoakes »

Dally our one and only duck decided to eat a HUGE bumblebee!! yike*

Rushing through my mind was what on earth do I do if it stings her in the mouth and I cant get the sting out, but no need to worry as yet anyway, everything is fine. Bee demolished and washed down with some water.

Has anyone seen ducks eat bees before? Got to say, its a first for me. LOL

I'm glad she's ok Gwenoakes! I've seen ours have a few bees, never seems to bother them as much as it does me!
Made the silly mistake of leaving my polytunnel open while they were free ranging one day and in it I have some of the hottest chillis in the world growing! They quite happily stripped one of my plants before I chased them out!
