Bite size

These little morsels were hatched in a raised flower bed outside the paint shop at work.

Recipie suggestions please?


I think crispy duck as a starter with bite size kebabs to follow.
I didn't mean it Lynn, they now live on the pond at the front of the factory with all the others and are getting very well fed.
(Foie gras perhaps)?

You have to burn the fluff off the little ones first (use a blowtorch) or it gets stuck in your teeth.
They make such funny noises while you do it.

Now, Full stop it and you too Dive. How mean you are.

Thank you for showing us the ducklings though Full, they are just beautiful. I name the little yellow one 'Rose' owing to the recent rose i posted. Names for the others? Um. Are they boys or girls i just don't know. Yes of course they have to be named! Have you taken leave of your senses? :)

Huey, Dewey and Louis?
Or possibly Peking, Crispy and A l'orange?

Joy said...

Happy Birthday, Phil! :-)

dive said...

Yup. Happy Birthday, bro.
I take it there's duck for dinner?

Happy Birthday Full! Have a great day, whatever you're doing. Whatever it is, we want pictures. xx

One duckling has to be Fred, another could be Donald, Bert's quite nice, Alf, see i like all the old-men names, propping up the bar-type names. Kings' names. Suitable i think. If there's more than one female, apart from Rose, could it be Lynn? :)

Full said...

Thank you all.

I don't think pictures of me cutting the grass, ironing, cooking and watching the test match will be up to snuff so I'll find something more interesting to post.

All girlie ducks will now be known as Lynn or Rose, or Mmmmm that was delicious.

I have some kangaroo in the freezer Dive but I think a nice steak along with my Chateau Clos Renon 2005 will be just the ticket.

Happy birthday, Full. Dive sent me, and the rest of the world.

Happy Birthday Phil!

Hope you've been having a great Birthday Full! I very much enjoyed the photos that Dive posted of you (such a cute kid!). I hope to enjoy the photos you post of Dive for HIS birthday even more. Be ruthless!!

Full said...

I have WMD's of my own but I'm not that sort of little brother.

I'm sure I can find a few choice piccies when the time comes.

Thank you all for being glad I'm older.

Yay! Oh and.. Happy Birthday Full.

From an immature superhero to a full-fledged (hehe), mature simian deity: May your days be filled with laughter and joy, and your nights with love and passion. Er, and a lot of red wine and whiskey.

Happy birthday, Phil.

Happy Birthday to the most Devastating Man who takes the sweetest photos of the dearest, tiny ducklings and has a sense of humour as naughty as his brother's.
Hope you have a fabulous birthday, Phil. I bet your lovely Mum has made a spectacular cake for you in the shape of a bassoon.

Full said...

Yay right back atcha Lynn.

GG, nice to see you again. My days are filled with work and my nights, well let's just say there isn't a Monkey Goddess just now.

Mme, pas de gateaux!

If Mum did make a bassoon shaped cake, she has eaten it herself.
I didn't get over to see her last week but will get there next weekend so you never know!!

Katherine said...

Hi! Dive says we should wish you Happy Birthday and since I feel like I know so much about you life after reading his blog, I thought I would! And please don't eat those poor babies. Besides, their feet will get stuck in your throat.
