That's just the way it seems to go sometimes, I'm so sorry to hear of your own experience. Do you have many freshwater habitats around the waterfowl could migrate to? Hopefully some of them are still around you now.

...I must say, you have a beautiful flourish to your writing - I love the colors, shapes and other life I see in this lovely (turned to trash) garden. When I was young, we played in the forest (still there & owned by my pop), it was alive with such sublime beauty. The creek that ran through it provided much for the wild life. The smell of decaying leaves after the ice melted, the freshness of the black dirt, squirrels, chipmunks, opossums, raccoons, deer lurking about. Snails growing on the old wood, slugs, other bugs, and mushrooms under cover of the expansive canopy of elm, oak, poplar, birch and other variation of towering trees. Moths with massive wing spans and spectacular designs on their wings - Utter amazement for a youngster to grow and thrive in.

Blessings friend ~
