The photo below is of a Muscovy duck standing guard over it's dead brother.

The duck stayed by it's siblings side for two days and in that time it wouldn't

allow us to go near him so we could remove the dead duck.I could understand

if it was a female partner or a or if it was a mother with her dead young.

But a duck staying by it's dead brother is pretty amazing I thought.

Nature can be truly touching sometimes.

Incredible story, Shaggy. The farm dog at my GF's farm did the same at it's sisters' grave and wouldn't eat for days.. Animals are very sensitive and, well... humane..!

another Muskovy story is a parallel to what Shaggy reported. when

Mr Muskovy disappeared (perhaps a big gator) Mrs Muskovy refused

food for several days and spend her time sitting very close to a door

which had a mirror like brass kickplate atached at the bottom. she

must have taken her reflection as being her husband.

we used to handfeed her and put a bowl of water next to her till she

was willing to wander around again and feed normally.

a touching animal story!

I see that you have some fond memories there Naam.

I have a sneaky feeling that there could be a duck purchase
