I mentioned that I saw ducks yesterday and that they made me happy. Please excuse the bad exposure, focus, composition, and photoshopping of these duck photos :-D, but I still wanted to show you these. I saw this cute pair--male:and female:
Where? Not in a beautiful pond or lake but here:
In a corn field, in a puddle made by melted snow. I love that about spring! It's not Tony Soprano's pool or anything, but it still amuses me every year to see ducks in random puddles around town.
And here's my "guess this" for today. An easier one:
And because I love birdies, another bird of the day, a nuthatch:

Becky--A potholder!! Whoo hoo! Used to make those when I was a kid (makes 'em an antique) and did it with DD; love your colors! Great nuthatch. They hide too well around here. And those mallards---LOL! I've seen Canada geese do the same thing.
Love your nature pics! You are so lucky to have so many birds around your neighbourhood! As for the mystery - I would go for a potholder??
I like the 2nd shot of the duck- he looks like he is saying here get a shot of this!
Great shots. I am going to cheat and give pats answer a pot holder cuz again I dont have any idea.
yea for ducks. Love the colors in the close up shot..
Great nature shots.
I am going to guess that it is a lawn chair seat.
I know, one of those potholder things kids make with the square thing! Love the colors in the duck shots and reflections, too funny about their 'pool' of water! :)
That nuthatch is cool, I'm really going to try to get some bird shots this year.
Thanks for the link to the list of the day blog, I'm off to check it out next...kids going to bed in 15 minutes. And we still have snow, about two feet, but there are a few areas where some green is poking through!
nice shot of the bird! my guess is a potholder. i remember making them with girl scouts as a kid
My dd makes those too, but she can't figure out how to finish is off. I really love the duck pics, they are cute together!
Cute duck pics!! I like the reflection and the one of the duck hiney! Too funny!!
We make those postholders too! So many of them that I'm going to sew them all together for a baby blanket for my kids babies...maybe some day!!
The ducks are beautiful! I love how you got the male's reflection in the pond- err, puddle. LOL! That is hilarious about them swimming in that corn field!
Is your mystery shot a handmade potholder?
You bring back lots of memories. We used to go play in our "Spring-only" pond in the cornfield behind my house when I was a kid - in between weaving potholders. ;) Love the reflection in your first pic and the angle in the second.
I love that reflection on the first duck shot!
well, i'd say a little quilt..i don't know. that first picture of the duck is great. i love his reflection. very cute.
I love the reflection you captured and in a puddle!! too funny~ great shots.
I like your nature shots! That reflection is to cool. ANd I am going to say that it's a pot holder. Ok I'm cheating but Pat always seems to get them right lol!
