Duck with Bandaids

After letting the ducks swim in the concrete irrigation ditch, we noticed one had bleeding feet.  The feet had worn away some of the skin because of the abrasiveness of the ditch.  Poor little thing.  They were also very cold and this one seemed to be getting hypothermia due to the prolonged exposure to the cold water.  So after blow drying the little ducks and warming them up, this one needed special care.  So using my basic mothering skills, I found some extra large bandaids and Neosporin that worked perfect on it's feet.  Now I can add the title of "duck nurse" to my job title!
