Because pet ducks are generally raised on open ponds or lakes, they are subject to predation. Predators that can damage your duck flock include: turtles, owl, hawks, raccoons, skunks, opossums, cats, and dogs. If possible, your ducks should be maintained in an enclosure that prevents predator access.

The Fly Orchid is a relatively widespread type of European orchid that grows to be between 11 and 15 inches tall with âyou guessed it!â flowers that look like little flies, with big, black, bug eyes and all.
