A duck interlude…

By Words | Published May 30, 2010

Something of a brief interlude from the fox cubs… I took these shots on Friday. Just a brief sequence of a duck taking to the wing.

I also grabbed a few shots of dragonflies, but other than these it's been a quiet few days. Apart from the garden, that is. Stay tuned 😉
