I saw you asked a question about wood ducks on another blog. The males leave sometime after the female starts incubating the eggs. Ducks and geese molt their flight feathers and need a safe place to hide for the 3-4 weeks. You may notice that the male mallards and wood ducks molt to look like females and then regain their breeding plumage in theRambling Woodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15080120317890707767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-12173748702342617922008-07-19T19:21:00.000-04:002008-07-19T19:21:00.000-04:00I love the old fashioned garden, and the idea of p...I love the old fashioned garden, and the idea of planting seeds in any available soil.

To tend a garden is a joy of contemplation and creation, for being a caretaker of such beauty gives one an intimate sense of the continuing cycle of beginnings and endings, and renewal.
