Awesome pictures - and quite a timely post for me! I went down a slippery slope myself today, and have a large rip in my pants to prove it! Good thing I was wearing two pairs of pants! I feel better knowing even graceful birds sometimes end up sliding!
ReplyDeleteI love the speed-skating pose of the drake in the last shot! Stay warm up there!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. Looks like an old man walking to his car across the ice at the store.
ReplyDeleteFunny series, especially the last picture with the mallard inspecting the path ahead!
