Michelle has made some exciting progress in her efforts to rescue Duckett & Riedel over in Crofton. She even got a shot of Duckett finally – what a beauty!

In Michelle’s own words:

“I have continued feeding them everyday. Sometimes they are waiting for me at a distance. They usually don’t go over to eat while I am still there. Yesterday, however, was a bit different. It had rained all day so I thought perhaps they were sleeping in the shed they hide out in on occasion. I drove up and found them asleep under some trees at a distance. I wanted to get them to come and have their food so I shook the container. They didn’t respond. Of course, I was terrified they were sick or worse! I couldn’t imagine them not popping their heads up for food. As I moved closer, I could see they were breathing…and as I got closer, realized they were snoring! I wasn’t prepared to take a picture due to the rain, but how adorable they were sleeping under the trees. I woke them up by asking them if they were hungry. They popped their heads, gave a good stretch, and yawned. They got up and came and ate right out of my hand! Making progress with these cuties!”
