Saw these today in a local park. Thought at least one member here would be interested to see how his family is getting on!! Pretty well, I would suggest.
The ducks there are really quite tolerant of humans, who also seem to give them plenty of space. Whilst I was using the inbuilt telephoto lens to get the pictures, that duck never took her eyes off me, even though I kept my distance. Her little ones are as cute as cuties doing cute - and as mad as a box of frogs.
Here on holiday we came across a mother duck taking her children across a main road. The red car you can see is our hire car, the ducks spent some time in the shade underneath the boot. I can't remember what town it was in but here are some pictures of Lake Superior late in the day.
Was it Duluth Andy. Visited there once whilst on a business trip. Our HQ for IT was in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis/St Paul). Lovely spot.
I'm really not sure Nikki, it was fourteen years ago. I think the sunset pictures were taken at "sunset point" believe it or not but just what town it's in I can't remember. Edit: Just done some checking, it was Marquette, Michigan.
@Dozers Dad That camel! I got thrown out of Chester zoo, as part of a school trip, for giving a camel a packet of bubble gum. They have pretty expressive faces, and really sloppy mouths. Should see one with a mouthful of bazooka Joe....they can spit too Of course, I don't advocate going out and trying that with a camel. It's just that, well.... I was just a very naughty boy.
Tomatoes AND a camel???!!! Jez, you really are spoiling us now. But what is this 'bike forum' of which you speak. Do tell!
