Hello, We recently discovered we have a mallard and her 8 eggs in front of our house near the mail box/street. It is covered by flowers. Now that we are aware of it is there anything we can do to keep it protected? We have a dog who actually helped us find it. She is always leashed when in front so we can be sure that she stays away. Just would love to make sure these little guys make their way into the world. Thank you, Karen
