Wordless Wednesday: Ducks

Mallards for sure. Mergansers also? I don't know.

Taken at the outlet of Crystal Lake, Barton, Vermont.
More photos of the lake and Hardscrabble Mountain from today.

The outlet goes to Crystal Lake Falls in Barton Village.

Above and below, an old ice house.
There should not be open water in mid-January.

  2. These take me out of here and put me up there in a delightful way. These are so serene and vivid, I feel I am at the edge of that water, too!

  11. That's strange these pictures remind me a parc in Brussels where I used to walk with my son in his pram or later we fed the ducks.

  12. I was just noticing that all of the ducks face in the same direction! Maybe they are turning their backs to the wind?

  13. Beautiful photos. I love your bird shots Andree. I take it that the lake should be completelly frozen over though? Happy WW

  15. Interesting. I look at those photos and think how cold it must be, yet there is the fact that the water would have been frozen in past years.

    In any case, those are great photos following the ducks.

  16. Such beautiful pics. Are your cats chasing ducks or are they window watching?

  17. I love the way the ducks are enjoying a peaceful retreat in the water. And the place looks so cold and quiet.
