What's up, Duck?


Today we stopped at a small local grocery. When we got out of the car I noticed two mallard ducks standing close to the door. Very close. I was intrigued. We poked around the store, and when we came out, there was a FLOCK of mallards, milling about the parking lot. We went back in and got a loaf of bread. And fed the ducks. While we fed them I took 150 pictures of the quackers, flying in and out, eating bread out of my husbands hand, sitting in the snow. They were quite tame. I got some lovely shots, but this one speaks to me... those angel-like wings and ORANGE feet. What was God thinking when he gave ducks bright orange feet, anyway? You gotta love that kind of humor.
