The Duck Pond

 

One of my favourite places to wander when I have the time is around the duck pond at James Gardens. This shot was taken at the end of September on a very warm day and it is interesting that the ducks were all staying in the shade even when swimming in the pond. Smart birds.

What a peaceful scene! The ducks staying in the shade while swimming is such an interesting observation—nature always finds its way to stay comfortable. James Gardens sounds like a lovely spot to visit.

Quite a contrast with the weather we're experiencing here today. Cold by southern Virginia standards.

A bit over two months later, the scene will be very different.
