Not so graceful approach

This isn't exactly graceful beauty, but I thought it was interesting. That's the great thing about animals, they don't complain when you take an unflattering picture.

Birds not of a feather still flock together

April 21, 2009August 6, 2024 by Robert Thivierge

Some of the Waterfowl at Prince's Island. If you notice the grass doesn't look 100% natural, I did some crude #2 touch ups of the image. Nothing special to the photo really, but I just liked how the two birds were palling around. I don't really know much about birds. I assume both are the same type of duck, but just different age. But don't really know.
