As I walked past the marina yesterday, I saw the Mallard Drake hurrying by at top speed, looking like he was gettin' the hell out of Dodge. A strong current was sweeping him along even faster, and he didn't even slow down for a photo op -- I felt lucky to get these:

 I soon saw why, and can't say that I blame him: there was a 
huge Canada Goose that must have been 
three times the mallard's size, combing the
 Cloud Nine area. One wouldn't want to tangle with that!

| good eats here... | 
Sooo.... will we be seeing 
goslings or 
ducklings on the raft this year?
