Aww what a cutie! I'm quite partial to ducks as you've probably guessed. I hope you didn't wake this one up, he looks so peaceful floating there.

Thanks to all my friends for the wonderful images I get to look at and learn from on Caedes every day. I always have something to say about them, but don't always have the time to record it. Please forgive me if I can't comment on all of your uploads.

Tell your daughter she had perfect title. I wasn't expecting anything this warm when I read title in friends section. What a pleasant surprise. It makes me feel so good think I'll have a duck for dinner. Not to dinner, for dinner. Love the reflection and I'm alway impressed that ducks are double jointed. Great photo and collaboration with your daughter, Patti.

Patti, the deep royal blue of the water just adds such cool contrast to her clean white feathers. Nicely done..

Wonderful title Patti, as it's a reflection of your wonderful image. Referring to Jerry's comment: Don't tell other people you've called her so, lol.

AAAH, how gorgeous, with his head tucked under his wing like little cock robin.
Such a soft and gentle looking duck.
How could anyone think of eating one!
BTW I think the title is perfect.

From this angle it's more like a Snow Butt. A very nice capture with good tonal quality. Well done.

I once promised a friend to be his snowball - to talk about him, help him and make a big, hudge snowball at the end. I do not think it was only my work, but his life changed for better. I think this little snowball will be another change for somebody elses life. Beautiful.
