L doesn't like crusts on her sandwiches. Such a preference is a bit annoying but I won't go as far as buying crustless bread (which I have seen in the supermarket, to my bewildered horror). After all, J doesn't mind and neither do we parents. So I'll slice off the edges of bread for her. Sometimes I eat them as a snack later but usually I save them up. If we have a big batch (which sometimes requires freezing), we'll take it and feed fish. Here is one such outing:

L throws to the fish! |

Enthusiastic (or perhaps aggressive) fish |
We were throwing bread in long enough that we attracted the attention of other interested parties, namely a bunch of ducks. We don't discriminate based on species, so we started feeding them as well.
|
L serves a new customer |
Sadly, our actions led to a bit of Darwinian competition between the underwater dwellers and the surface-water dwellers. No blood was spilled but feathers were ruffled.
|
Ducks and fish go for the same bits of bread! |
No clear winner emerged, which makes me want to perform more experiments. Is that wrong?
