Now I know that to most people Pongo and Perdita are a pair of dogs from Disney but to me they will always be this pair of ducks. Every year, just about at this time (early spring) a pair of ducks show up each morning at our pond. They are the sweetest couple, swimming around in this little pool of water when there are so many true ponds and lakes all around us. But each year these two come back for a little alone time at our pond. They don't stay long, just a couple hours a day for around 2 or 3 weeks, but I have come to love seeing them. Somewhere along the way I started calling the Pongo and Perdita (maybe 3 years ago) and so that is how they are known to us. Most days Perdy swims around with Pongo watching out for her (they seem to be aware that there is a camera crazy female living in the house.) They are my true first sign of spring and I look forward to seeing them each year... now if only we could teach them to poop in the neighbor's yard!
