Just Ducky

Trip west to get some needed farm supplies yesterday. Discovered that yet again a medicine we rely on regularly is being discontinued. It is so hard to manage around that scenario.








But aren't these common mergansers we saw fishing the Mohawk just ducky? It was fun to watch them hunt an area then just let the current sweep them downstream to go fishing somewhere else...so effortless.

Great ducks. It seems so odd to see them floating amongst ice and snow. Something I've never seen.

we are all thawed here and the ducks are having a blast.

Cathy, the mergs stay all winter if there is open water and we see more during the cold time than in the summer, at least on the river. I love to watch them, especially the females and babies up at camp. They are right out there in your face in winter and so very secretive in summer.

Linda, envy! At least the river only froze over for about a week so far.
