tophat...duck you
one day recently we saw a duck in the bushes outside our office and then a couple days later she was sitting on a few eggs under the bush. Then we noticed the hawk which patrols our area being quite interested. All of a sudden, the hawkie swoops down and torments the duck who fights back and chases the hawk away. A few minutes later, the hawk swoops in again and is now claws hooked into mother duck...we run out to save our dearie duck and chase the hawk away...though you may appreciate the hawk thought it was the local ruler, we are significantly larger and hawk was inspired to see our point of view. We kept a vigil and after a few hours the eggs were no longer under our bush, the mommie duck had moved her brood to a more secure location. And they live happily ever after.
ps: yesterday I had two duck rolls for my appetizer and they tasted quite familiar
