440. together


the two of them
piddling and paddling along
all day long

 

(Wintering ducks. I love how they glide in the water with softness and ease, even in the cold. Taking time out to observe them together brings me to a peaceful place. 

Mallard ducks, unlike swans and geese, do not mate for life but come together in Winter for the breeding season, then go their separate ways in Spring.)
