The Khaki Campbell male, far left, lost his wife a few months ago and now hangs out with Ms. Mallard (stripey one) who someone hatched and donated to Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest NC. She has been debating migrating lately but she loves mothering a group of five young male Call ducks. Call ducks were originally used by hunters as decoys to lure wild ducks. Now there’s an Iphone app for that. Time will tell if Ms. Mallard migrates or if true love keeps here at Winterpast Farm.
If you want to visit Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest NC and meet all the animals please read “your visit” at www.winterpast.org which explains in great detail admission, how to park at a pig, how not to go down the neighbors private road behind the barn even if your GPS says to turn there, and lists food you can bring to feed animals.
