Hi Raye,

I tried many times yesterday to post to RuMill but nothing happened. Sometimes I could get the list of posts but most times not even that. I really wanted to post my "Secrets of the Bar Mitzvah" and "Terminator Cows". What I did when I couldn't post was drive out to a lake and walk my dog around it. The ducks and geese are delightful to behold especially the ones with ducklings. I did see an abusive motherduck though. She seemed to be very angry with her brood. Kept scolding them and dunking them with her beak. I didn't notice other duckmoms doing this. I looked for a policeduck to report her to but none were in sight. Another problem took my attention though and that concerned two Canadian Geese and their two adorable fuzzy ducklings. Three single Canadian Geese appeared to be stalking them and the parentgeese had to continually monitor them and chase them away from their youngins. I couldn't tell if the stalkers were pedogeese or just a gang out for kicks but I was ready to jump in the lake if they got too close to the fuzzy ducklings. Fortunately mom and pop were on it and I was able to remain dry and continue my dogwalking.--Jana
