Why Do People Have Pets?

Column Two - I Wish I Could Help Them All

Every day for about the last two weeks, I have seen a momma duck and her ducklings walking in the subdivision where I live. Seeing the ducks reminded me of when I lived in South Dakota. (Yes, I lived in South Dakota before relocating back to the Daytona Beach area.) We lived on a 28-acre lake, and we would watch the geese and ducks come out with their babies. In almost every case, there were at least 8 ducklings/goslings per adult couple and as many as 12-15 teams (duck families) on the lake at once. It was fun to observe the tiny little babies mature into adolescent birds, then obnoxious teenagers, and finally full-grown waterfowl.
