…. I don’t know who was more surprised, me or the ducks?
The biggest surprise today had to be the weather. We hit a record high for January 12th. It was a great day for a walk. Everybody and their dogs were enjoying this beautiful, warm, sunny day. Even this family of ducks took advantage of the warmth and were out for a little stroll along the path.
Unfortunately this lovely picture didn’t last long when Frances realized that there were ducks walking ahead of her and when the ducks caught wind of Frances in the rear. The flock quickly took flight and landed in the lake, far away from any canine company.

Thanks, Mark. These shots were tricky because I had the dog on the leash and I didn’t want her to scare the ducks away. She also doesn’t stop moving for more than a second so trying to hold onto the camera with one hand and not shake was a challenge.

There’s something about ducks that is quite fascinating. We tend to dismiss as ‘just dull ducks, and forget they have these bright orange feet and often wonderful feather colourings.

It’s not often that I see them out of water, either, certainly not such a large group.
