The message
from "BAC" contains these words:

Hedgehogs and squirrels are also rather partial to birds' eggs, though a
duck's might be rather on the large side...


Let's face it - almost anything big enough to fit the egg in its mouth or
beak could be regarded as a 'suspect'. Hopefully, the duck will choose a
safer nesting site next year, although some Mallards seem to specialise in
picking all sorts of daft places.

Somewhere I've a book which includes a pic of a couple of rats
carrying-off a large egg. One at is hugging the egg while the other rat
drags the egg-hugger by the tail.
