Monday's on the farm

[trystinn]

When I went outside to let the ducks out, I found Nera hogging the pond with the rest of the flock watching from the shore in envy while she ignored them completely.

Ducks: Can we come in?
Nera: No
Ducks: Please!
Nera: No
Ducks: Pretty Please!
Nera: No
Brutus: Not even me?
Nera: No
Me: Nera, get out of that pond, it's time to forage.
Nera: No
Me: Nera, out! It's foraging time!
Nera: Not gettng out.
Me: (getting pond net) Get out of that pond, Nera. You're holding up my coffee.
Nera: (hurries out of the pond, complaining loudly) I'm out, I'm out!
Me: (grabbing Nera and tossing her over the pen fence) Don't mess with Mommy before her coffee!

The flock roared with ducky laughter as she waddled off to catch up with them.

That's pretty hilarious, but probably only because I'm half a country away!

My neighbors must think I'm nuts. I talk to the critters all the time.
