How's it going, has the river dropped any?

[goosepimple]

Got them!  Yes Pennine, just read your post, we did corner them, OH in his waders and me on the banking, got them into a corner, OH grabbed 2 of the by the neck and held them while the other 2 tried to climb over the fence and I grabbed them, excellent and didn't take longer than 10mins in all.  Wish I had filmed the reunion with the lonesome one.  Needless to say they stuck to the pond today not the river.  All is well and the sun was shining. 


Happy ending.

What a relief

Glad you managed to rescue them. Those piccies showed a wild river I really wouldn't like to argue with.

   yes, it does get a bit wild, I've lost many a trug, feeder or lick this past year as it's been eating away our land at the river's edge and washing it downstream. Probably lost a few ducks too, they usually keep to the shallows and eddies at the sides but if they venture towards the middle it's white water rafting all the way.   
 
Was nice cuddling the geese though, big pillows

Glad they're safe

Excellent 

I lost a yellow bucket in the beck when it was wild the other day. Then I saw next door's farm lad with a yellow bucket on the back of his quad, so I guess it got washed up on their land

   its when your livestock get washed downstream and you see your neighbour with them you have to worry    or your undies of course!
