My Mom Talks about Her Ducks

My mom was telling me tonight she had pet ducks. When she lived in the house where I grew up. I know she's not senile so I'm sure she's correct. But this must be before my time. I'm trying to imagine my Mom relating to ducks now and having a problem. She said she eventually got them a home on a farm. She's worried they ended up a l'orange. We got on this topic because we were talking about Farm Shows of years past and how they used to have peeps dyed all those colors--which probably sentenced them to an early death since they stopped that practice later.

In the horrible news department, my Mom told me that one of the two albino squirrels that lived in her yard turned up dead on her porch. She has a cat that is a total killer so I have no doubt who the culprit was. Now that squirrel's memory lives on at my YouTube channel. And hopefully other places.
