What a day! We ordered 3 more yards of fur for my mate
wolfycorpse's suit after realizing we didn't have enough to finish his suit of Flu. We were hungry and
sycoskunk wanted to see the town of Frederick since she's never been. We ate at a very nice Italian restaurant called Olives in town and walked around looking at the shops and we also walked around Carroll Creek. We found a little baby Mallard duck that had been injured. A carp was trying to drown it. A lady found it and got it out. But she just placed it near the mother and left. I don't think Momma duck noticed it as she kept quaking for her baby. But the baby was hurt, cold and in shock. The poor thing couldn't even keep its head up. Momma duck flew off after awhile. She came back once but kept looking everywhere but where the baby lied. We went over to it and it looked near death. Its head was laying side ways on the ground and it was hardly moving. Just shaking a lot. We didn't want to just leave it there so my mate Wolfy picked it up and I used my cell to find a nearby wildlife rehabilitation center. Luckily there was one in Ijamsville near where I used to live with my folks. We rushed back to my car and I drove slowly to the rehabilitation center while my mate kept it warm in his hands. On our way there the baby duck seemed to be perking up! He slept in his hands and snuggled into his chest. He woke up a few times to make his first cheeping sounds since we found him. We finally took a long drive onto a gravel winding road to the rehabilitation center. The lady already had a box prepped for him/her. She placed the baby duck in there and he rested. We chatted for a bit before we left. Then afterwards left and came home. So we saved a life.... the lady said if we hadn't had brought it there it when we did, it would have died. But she said injuries seemed minor and he would more than likely be ok!!!
Pic of the baby duck is below. This is when we first saw/found him when the lady dug him out of the water.
