What a lovely photo, congratulations!
If members keep submitting all these great photos, Becky may have to change the contest to "Photo of the Week."
I had to drink two glasses of wine before I decided which photo to vote for. If I'd had three, I'd have voted for Zigs' photo.

@Daren oh lordy are those geese? What are they doing dressed up like ducks? Well never mind, "Daren's ducks" sounds better than "Daren's geese" and i would have voted for the photo any way, by far my favorite Are the little ones still with the adults? Maybe you could show us an up dated photo?

Good for you for voting for Zigs' Andy, it deserved a vote

 

[Beverly]

Nice shot Beverly. And thanks all who voted for my turtles. these ties have happened before. Think a better way of handling it is to have each take a turn during the month as the winner.

I thought of that also Esther, but all members get one vote including Becky and she reserves her vote to use as a tie breaker so in the end it really isn't a tie and i think that is fair.

They fly over there and knock about the window. I do not know why they do it, but I always go to let them go free.

They probably pupated in the barn as caterpillars and when they became butterflies and could fly, they wanted out.

i'll have to look see if I got some more up to date pics of them but here is one of them out of the water. I think they always look the best when new born

@Daren, yikes! Those are GEESE! Now i can't find your photo entry, but i remember the adults as being white. I knew i should have taken a copy of that image, now it is nowhere to be found. I like them better in the water. I have nothing against Geese and the little ones are probably learning to eat slugs Do these larger ones start out white and change color?

Well done @Beverly ......fab shot

 

[granjera]

Thank you @granjera coming from the mistress of fine photos,

You make me blush. I just find good subjects and try to hold the camera steady.

 

[Beverly]

Ah, but @granjera for any subject there are many points of view and you seem to get that right every time. I suspect you do not know you are doing this. It is a question of having an artistic eye and that makes all the difference in the world. I do not have an artistic eye, but i do get lucky sometimes. I can sort out who has an artistic eye and who doesn't but of course i wouldn't do that... not out loud anyway.
