Wrong. The story is not about the turkeys and the chickens, it is about the abandoned dam floor they are standing on. I always had designs on that old floor and when someone gave me some ducks and geese, I knew exactly what the floor was going to be - a pond!
We built the sides up with natural rock, with a pipe and tap inserted on floor level one side for emptying it out when dirty, then we lined it with plastic and built another layer of 'wall' with natural rock before cutting away the excess plastic, and voila! A pond!
Of course the granddaughters had to do the tour of inspection first... Notice how the clothes get less as the story unfolds...

| So much fun and wonderment! The ducks and geese had to wait until the next day. |
