He Kept Falling Through the Ice by milaniet

He Kept Falling Through the Ice

Woke up more sore than yesterday but hopefully by tomorrow I'll be back to my normal routine (keep dark glasses on!) - glad I had these from last week. Went by the duck pond and it was still lightly frozen - but not enough to keep the ducks from falling through every little bit. This mallard would have the hardest time trying to get up again on the ice. Was quite comical.
Poor thing. My heart goes out to animals.

Well I must say that ice looks awfully thin! I like how your capture tells the story so well.

Poor thing. Makes me think of the advice I’ve heard re the smart phone bird calls and how they waste precious energy of birds who are attracted to the sound. It hadn’t occurred to me how close to the edge of survival birds are

Great capture

Wow, surprised that it would stay out there on the ice like that. great shot. Hopefully today will be worst of your pain and it's all down hill from here.

Ohh, poor fellow!

Very cute!

It must be so difficult for them during the winter months.

Poor duck. AS if he wasn't embarrassed enough. He had to listen to you laughing at him.

Frozen water is so danger. Wonderful light.

Poor guy. Glad you're feeling better, Milanie!

Poor duck. I'm glad he finally made it back up on the ice. Hope by tomorrow morning you're feeling much better.

Ohhh...it looks so cold! Hope you are feeling better!
January 26th, 2018  
I bet that was exhausting for him!

Finding every "quack" in the ice. ;-))

Looks like a comedy script! Poor fella, hard work in the ice.

Making life a bit difficult :)

It sounds like it was a nasty fall, look after yourself. :)
January 26th, 2018  
That looks sooo cold, can’t be very pleasant with all that ice!
January 26th, 2018  
Goodness, he really is struggling, isn't he, poor thing! He could probably manage better if the ice was a bit thicker.
Oh dear, I think it's quite usual for all the aches and pains to come out properly a couple of days after a fall. Sounds like pamper time.
January 26th, 2018  
That looks like one embarrassing photo for the mallard! Hope you manage to fare better!
January 26th, 2018  
Nice shot of that poor duck. Must be a struggle for them. Hope you recover from your aches and pains soon. Meanwhile stay comfortable out of the cold.
