Wild ducks return to the pond where they were born each spring to mate and have their chicks. Each year our flock grows little by little. This year we had four beautiful pairs that hung out until the weather turned.
Also much later, after they had departed, the Canada Geese began habitating. It was fun to watch them perform their water landings. Cliff stood recently by, silently observing them floating peacefully. They were soon startled by something in the brush and with incredible synchronization, they lept toward the sky, flapping their wings. He stood still as he felt their wind over his head, it was a magical moment, uncomplicated and natural.
