Some 'boids for Harry

Dee

We were in "silly valley" Tuesday and on our way home we stopped by the "Duck Pond" in Palo Alto, on Embarcadero, east of the Palo Alto Airport.

This originally was a swimming pool, but is now a duck pond and refuge.

Here's goosey gander prancing around.

Hey Dee,

Some birds at last, be still my foolish heart.

I like how you caught the goose's foot coming out of the water. What can I say about the duck butt shot? Have you ever asked yourself why they always turn their butts towqrds the photographer. I've have never had a duck who dunked his head into the water w/o turning his butt towards me. I think they are trying to tell us something.
