To Walk or Swim...

that is the dilemma that the ducks faced yesterday with a partially frozen lake...I think they like having a choice!

[Peggy Sirk]

Wonderful capture, Lin. I think I'd choose 'walk'...that water has to be frigid!

[Carole Imes]

You have to wonder what they're thinking. Really nice catch of all the Mallard couples.

[Marilyn]

Nice capture, Lin! I like the splashs of coloer on the ducks, esp. the feet:-)

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

Quack, it's to flipping cold to put your extremities in that water, lovely capture and the standing ducks win, quack.

[Lisa Poland]

Fabulous capture!

[Katie]

I like the walkers - and that you got their reflections on the ice!

@peggysirk @cimes1 @stormi40 @ladymagpie @homeschoolmom @archaeofrog Thanks, everyone!

[Stephanie Swift]

Nice composition, and it looks great when viewed large--details of ducks and reflections are more easily seen.

[Lin]

@tristansmum Thanks so much for taking time to view large, Stephanie - appreciate it!

[Lin]

@kbird61 @pattymelt Thanks so much!

[Nita]

Love it in large view, you can really see some of them are walking. So fun.

[Kerri Michaels]

It broke my heart when I went to feed the ducks today and they were all gone,, And the lake was frozen...Nice shot,,Have a Blessed one!!! Happy Shooting,,

[Hazel]

I'm always amazed that ducks never seem to feel the cold! Like the bits of reflections in your shot.

[Lin]

@sansjuan Thanks, Nita...they are so entertaining!

[Lin]

@moviegal1 I would be sad, too...I wonder where they were? Mine hang out all the time, no matter the season, at our lake. Happy Shooting to you, too!

[Lin]

@quietpurplehaze Thanks, Hazel - they were just laying around on the ice like it was spring time!

[Gayanne Campbell]

LOL... bet they swim Lin. Love the colors and focus. Super composition!

[Carys]
