A Short Tale of Ducks

I provide nest boxes of blue plastic for my ducks to find a safe, weatherproof space in which to snuggle in, lay some eggs and hatch some cute ducklings. Dark feathered duck starts her a nest in the box, patiently sets. 30 days later, I find 3 ducklings, and some unhatched eggs. Beige Duck starts to move in to help her set on the remaining eggs and she probably added a few of her own eggs to the mix. They nest share for about a week or so. This morning I find the dark feathered duck sitting outside the door of the nest box with one egg and she's pulling feathers from the nest box to her new location clearly unhappy with being evicted from her nest. All is not ducky in her world.
