"The Shine" is gone!!

There is someone missing on the farm, one of our ducks is gone. Her name is Shine and she went looking for a greener pastures. When we are home and the weather is nice we let the chickens and ducks out to forage during the day. They freely roam the property looking for tasty things to eat. Then as the day draws to a close we round them up and herd them back into their area for safe keeping. Shine has all of her flight feathers as do  most of the others ducks . The other ducks are content to roam the yard and sometimes they will walk to the pond and take a swim. But they all know where home is and as darkness closes in, they all gather near the coop area for their evening treat. Well that is when we have roll call and we count the ducks and chickens to see it anyone is being tardy coming back. Sometimes a duck or chicken will be a bit stubborn and not want to go in right away. But if they wanted to during the day they could just start walking or fly away. Shine has always been a wanderer, not wanting to come back in at night, staying at the pond till late. So sometime on Friday she took flight and has not been back. We keep counting the ducks during the day to see if against hope she would appear, but as of yet she has not come back. She probably not far but the are so many little ponds around that she could have visited. We will keep a look out for her but we know she is gone and will be sorely missed!
