The hen (AKA Marie) appears to have a fractured beak and may be the same hen who visited the yard last year throughout the summer and fall.

Not sure about this one nor do I know what’s in its beak, perhaps material to build a nest?!

It looks like mother hen, Marie-with-the-fractured-beak, and 3 juveniles at the bird feeder. If calculations are correct they would be about 4 weeks old. A frustrating lack of knowledge of duckling development prevents me from certainty. Also not 100% certain it’s the hen with the fractured beak- see photos 1-3. Any enlightenment is appreciated. Thanks :-)
PS: never observed her nest or her hatchlings swimming in the lake but it would make my heart happy to think Marie showed her ducklings where to find our bird feeder! :-))

Could someone with knowledge please let me know if this hen’s beak is broken? She was observed with her mate, eating on land apparently without difficulty. Thank you.
