Ducks

While out searching for my 'something old' in the sunshine (yes all the icky snow was gone overnight!), I came across a large group of ducks. They had some beautiful colours and I liked the look of their feathers.



This one had an injured right leg. If you look at it, his right leg bends in towards the left leg which caused him to really waddle when he was walking.

Catching a power nap. I've always been amazed at how ducks sleep-they just tuck their heads in and off they go. If only I could do that...

Awww that poor duck with the bum leg. :(

But great shots, the light is amazing! Especially the third one. It was such a rainy icky day here in Halifax, that sunlight looks great :)

It does look like great day! Definately not the weather we had here either.

I love the one with the grass(?) hanging from his bill :)

I was also going to comment on the lighting; I wish I'd had that light when I took my dick photos last week! You got some some really great shots!

I totally lucked out with the weather. It was a beautiful day (you can see the blue sky in the totem pole shot in the photo contest photo) which just made the ducks "glow".

Uhmmmm... Jenn, I'm guessing you meant "duck photos"-although if not, I could be sorry that I missed them!

Fantastic shots. I love the first one of the duck waving his wings!

Looks like a beautiful day.

Want some of my snow? Come on, it'll be fun!
