Cleo started nesting in December 2024 with a clutch, very out of season but thanks to a very warm autumn. Storm Darragh disrupted that nesting. She tried again in July but after 28 days, that clutch came to nothing and she left the nest to build another one and start again.
When I opened the ducklings up in the morning, it was Maureen that alerted me to something going on with Cleo's latest clutch. 7 healthy babies.
