These are wonderful! I love the crispness and clarity. I can almost feel the cold.

At least if the ice breaks they've got a built in boat LOL. I love these reflections my friend. Well done :) Have a great Friday :)

Carolyn Ford said...

These are precious...their little feet must be cold! I love the underside of the right foot in the second photo. Love these!

Rune Eide said...

Ducks on ice are fun to watch (and "shoot"), and these are no exception. :-)

Unknown said...

Fun reflections, Carletta. In the second photo, the duck appears to be walking on water. Now that is a very special duck. :)

Delightful reflections! The ducks seem to be looking further out for water and food.

Lovely photos! In the first one, the drake is in mid step - that always makes me laugh. I have no idea why.

I like both but the strutting pair in the first image gets the edge.

So Cool Carletta. I hope their feet don't freeze.

I like the first one: Mr. & Mrs. Mallard out for a stroll! Nice reflections, too!

They are really out for a stroll, they only need a camera to looks like a couple of tourists.

Michael said...

Our ducks are having the same problems. Nice birds. :)

Coy Hill said...

Miracle Ducks! Walking on water :)

Unique captures Carletta, if it were not for the mallard hen in the second shot it would be difficult to tell that the water is frozen.

They look as if they're enjoying their Wintery walk!
