Duck for peace ( ^ >

I spotted this guy with a pond all to himself when I was out on an assignment this week. He seems to be having a peaceful life. Let's take a page from his book and Quack for Peace.

Creative photo # 13 - Week 3

"Ducky"

Today I offer up a photo I took last April. This lone duck seems content as he suns himself at the pond behind City Hall in Milford, Ct.
Is he looking for his feathered friends? Or just happy to be alone?

It's my entry this week in Roger's Creative Photography contest. To take part in the fun, visit Roger at Idaho Photo. There are always a lot of great entries. You won't be disappointed!

Quack!

Just ducky '>

What a life, just quacking away. I took these photos while doing a story about a 22-foot wooden power boat a California couple launched last Thursday for a "cruise" from Connecticut to Florida. They may even venture as far as Galveston.
I posted that story here.

Have a Quacky Wednesday all!

( ' > Quacks

Whatever possessed me the other day to reveal what Ralph calls me? (Quacks) I don't know.
So much for keeping my secret identity (although probably my webbed feet would give it away).
Ralph calls me quacks, because we like ducks around here. And bunnies. He quacks a lot, and twitches a lot, and one day he started to call me Quacks. And it stuck.

I think I'll leave additional explanations for another day and time.
