This #Mallard is delighted that @robcrank68.bsky.social‬ has chosen #Ducks as the #BirdOfTheDay
#Birds 🪶 #Birdsky #Nature #Wildlife #Birding #BirdWatching #BirdPhotography

A male Mallard Duck swims on a river facing to the right. The background is dark rippled water. The bird has a chestnut brown breast, grey flanks, brown wings, black and white tail feathers, and a yellow bill. The the evening light makes the ducks head looks dark blue rather than green in colour. Its bill is open giving the impression that it is very happy - maybe even laughing!

One advantage we ducks have over you non-ducks is in how we consume our news sources. We never get caught in an echo chamber. Don't argue about this.

However, there is an unacceptable cut-off point for incompetence. I refer to it as "the Jets."

Oh! I've driven through Byrd Park, but haven't really done any of the "stuff" there yet. Yeah, Ginter is a delightful place to stroll around and commune with other living thingys. I'm going to see Jeff Tweedy in concert there in like a week and a half.

Play the duck card...interesting idea.

That's beautiful. And also the most elaborate reveal party ever attempted.

I don't live AT the botanical gardens, but they're just down the road. And there is an amazing breakfast spot called the Love Shack a couple blocks away.

If I squint in just the right way, the first photo looks like a velvet painting of Admiral Akbar.

And we also discovered he dropped an upper decker in my dad’s commode tank!

I watched this little one make its last few movement before finally succumbing to the seasons. A bit emotional, I must admit. I also made a recent change to my antidepressant meds, so there’s that too.
