Feathers

I love this time of year, when the birds are moulting, and scattering feathers. This one is a swan feather, and the others are more likely to be goose or duck.

Some of the feathers end up covered in dew drops, making the effects even better.

I am linking this post with NF Catch the Light.

I saw this duck swimming in the reflected light of late afternoon.

First Ducklings

No, this is not a funny shaped duck. She has ducklings glued to her side, and is keeping them away from the dogs. 

The first ducklings I have seen this year.

Watery Wednesday

This morning, a lone duck was dabbling in the stream.
