Happy days! The stray duckling has now found it's way back to the family, so female now has all 5 surviving offspring.  
24/07/22ShovelerLower Farm GP1N Cleere
10:00
The breeding female started with 6 ducklings, but lost one a day ago. Starting the day with 5 young, she brought the family out into more open waters, but when she returned closer to the willows, she only had 4. No sign of a stray duckling, so it has possibly been depredated.
