Douglas

Douglas is a real charmer. He always knows what to do or say to make any situation go his way.  He makes all the girls swoon and is very popular with the children, who are often seen around his pond. He spends a lot of time swimming.

Douglas is a cheeky chap and will often help Hortensia when she is planning a practical joke on one of their friends.

Douglas Speaks

Quack!

I'm Douglas the duck. During the day I spend loads of time at the pond, I love to swim and entertain the children. They bring me lots of fresh bread to eat, they are wonderful.

From my pond I can see Cordelia and Hortensia if they are in the paddock, Henrietta too, although she often is sorting her girls out in the hen house. Sometimes she gets very tense, but she comes to the water's edge and we soon have a laugh together.

In the spring and summer when it is nice and warm I sleep down by the pond at night.  In the winter though, or if it is raining, I will often sleep in the henhouse with Henrietta as it is warm and dry.
