A warm welcome at Camont

After a warm 'nice to meet you', Kate Hill - our gracious host - exclaimed that there were ducklings in the oven that we must come see! Oh, the joys of French cooking.  Turns out the ducklings were in the oven to keep warm while they hatched.  Long story short, Kate aided two through the shells, then we marched to the little duck pond, a mini parade towards the Arc with two newborn ducks followed by two nosy lambs.  This is life at Camont.  

As of this morning, all the ducklings survived the oven, this time . . .

    Please send me a pic. of them.


    Love,

    I love that image of you guys parading with ducklings and lambs down to the pond after the oven birth.
    I am so enjoying this sojourn through southern France - thanks for sharing!
