Camera footage of the ducks in the snow in Georgia. Keep in mind, they have several dry walk in stalls, but they chose the outdoors
Just a pony, some peacocks and their pumpkin. Life is good! 😍

Milo the baby tortoise also says “Thank You” for the pumpkin donations!
Mandarin Duck
Darin greeted me in the stall this morning!! 🦆❤️.
The Mandarin ducks are the most shy ducks on the refuge and seldom share their beautiful faces with me. So this was a real treat.

The Mandarins' journey is one of hope and resilience as they navigate their new environment. Though shy, their intrinsic sweetness and stunning beauty inspire me daily!

First morning back after Hurricane Helene came through Georgia.
Mama, let's play!!
The trail cameras around the edge of our pasture pick up some fun videos this time of year. I just love it when the fawns come out to play.
Today we are celebrating the life of Miss Vickie, aka Vickie the Chickie!
Last Easter a few children absconded Vickie from their grandparents poultry farm.
She is now five month old and while her peers are being sent off for processing, Miss Vickie is still living the good life.
She is, however, substantially larger than the other chickens her age. They are mostly heritage breeds, and she’s a commercially bred chicken.
Cheers to Vickie!
And just like that, the 2024 Intake Season is over. In order to properly care for the current residents, we will be operating on a waitlist.
The Refuge welcomes the fantastic three! Jane, Cade, Charlotte, let the fun begin!
These little naughties are going to get me in trouble with the groundskeeper (my hubby). He draws the line when it comes to ducks in the pool. 🤪🦆🏖️
