This was taken three weeks to the day after this one. Quite a difference! Ducks are happy to find open water. There was another pair as well, just out of camera view.

Mary MacADNski: That day was lovely and warm.Today however is the coldest day of the winter so far. It is minus twenty-two degrees and the wind chill factor makes it seem much, much colder.
Another of your nice winter scene ! I love the 2 ducks !!
Mary MacADNski: The two pairs were happily in the water till I came outside. They got on the ice ready for an easier take-off in case I was an enemy about to attack. One pair is off to the right of the camera.

Fantastic shot Mary. Love this.
Mary MacADNski: You must try to get to North America sometime in the winter, Aussie. You'd love it!
It's so serene, Mary, even though I'm sure it conjures up other memories to the contrary!
Mary MacADNski: It's been there the twenty-three years I've been here with many more good memories than bad. The day of the accident I had been out skating twice and had moments before said how much I loved it out there on the pond. So no, no bad memories. Now my boots: that's another story.
Very nice shot Mary. The ducks seem to enjoy the sun

Mary the lighting in this shot is outstanding and the colours are so clear as is the whole shot.
Keep your eyes open as I found something in Amsterdam that reminded me of you.
Hope you are now well on the mend
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Tracy. Now you have me curious about what you found in A'dam. I'll be watching. I go to my first physio appt. on Wed. and will learn a lot then about my status then back to the surgeon on the 5th.
Delightful Mary. The diving duck song is a new one on me..some good guitar work!
Mary MacADNski: Harry Manx is incredible - one of my favorites. He plays a lot with Kevin Breit and they've collaborated on an album. I saw them playing together this past summer but for too short a time. There were other acts to follow.
