Duck Duck Goose

I've been taking advantage of the Spring Tease to get outside this week and breathe.  This is Sugarhouse Park, here in Salt Lake City.  It's one of our lovely neighborhood parks.  I went looking for crows.  No crows, but lots of ducks, geese, pigeons, and gulls.

This is a Muscovy duck.  I like the way he's looking at me, like, "well?  are you going to give me some bread or what?"

Taking a gander at the gooses;)

I don't know what kind of duck this is, but I just love the rosette shaped top knot!

Then I saw this little courtship.  The male was putting on quite a show, puffing out his chest and saying, "hey baby!  come over here."  And she was saying, "get away from me you creep!  Valentine's was yesterday and you didn't even get me anything!"   "Oh baby!  I'm so sorry!  Let me make it up to you!"  "Forget it!  You had your chance!"

Yes, in fact I have gone insane!  Thank you for asking:)  I think it must be this strange wind that is blowing through here.  Or it could be because I have to spend the entire rest of this day in doctor's and dentist's offices.  DH felt something pop in his ankle on Monday, and now it's hurting him to walk again.  Me, I get to go visit the dentist.  Boo.  Just x-rays today.  The fun comes next month.  Boo Hoo!

I'm outta here.  See you Friday!
