The water drops look like Swarovski crystals sitting on those feathers. Beautiful. I get a nice peaceful feeling from these pictures…I hope taking them did the same for you.

I had no idea the rain would bead up like that on a duck. It’s as if you just polished them with wax.

Is it just me, or do ducks always look like they’re happy?

They are quite the posers! I love their color variations. Are they sociable and friendly with you and Don? I don’t know much about ducks and wondered if they just stick together and don’t like to interact with humans. This is probably a stupid question… what animal wouldn’t love you & Don???

At first glance, the water looked like snow on their backs! 🙂 Silly me. Your little ducklings are growing up beautifully! I love the quote, too.

How beautiful! There is truly nothing more beautiful than one of God’s creations. You’ve illustrated the old adage, “Like water off a duck’s back” to perfection. Izzy is looking stunning, as usual. *smile*
