This is a photo of the duck after we cut it loose. I was in a rush to free the wildlife, that grabbing my camera didn't even occur when I saw it.
Another 2 photos of the duck before we let it go.
After we let it go, it hesitated for a few seconds, looked at us, checked its wing, and then slowly walked over and jumped in the pool.
Here are photos of it swimming in the swimming pool.
More photos of it swimming around the pool.
Surprisingly, I managed to get a photo of the duck moving its head. I think this is quite a special ability of birds. I hear birds actually need to keep their eyes still (for a little bit longer) to see clearly as they walk and move around due to their wobble. This photo clearly shows the eyes perfectly still as the duck shook its head.

After around 30 to 40 minutes of swimming in my pool, the duck flew off. It didn't seem to be injured or anything. I guess it did feel some pain, but it was probably just slightly bruised. These are all the photos for today. Please don't forget to share the blog post with your friends and family members!
