loved your column today. They are still at the farm moving about with the Hooded Mergansers. I was all alone at the farm for over 2 hours today except for the animals that I know were watching me. Lots of their tracks were still there.
The sky and clouds and sun and reflections in the water-amazing. Great shots of all.
Your pics are terrific. -
Just love those feet! Great shots.
