Quack Quack

Click on the pic to enlarge
If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands.

    What a wonderful photo of a duck. I love being able to see their feet when they're swimming (but we can only see one at a time). I can also see all her feathers and the little drops of water on her head...just beautiful.
