I was scanning through some of my fellow bloggers' posts today and saw this one from RedPat up in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, being surprised about the absence of ducks in a favorite spot.
Quite by coincidence, Judy and I happened upon this scene at one of our local lakes.
I have been by this lake many, many times and never have I seen this many ducks on it.
The surface was covered with ducks, everywhere we looked.
Judy commented that RedPat's ducks must have all flown south for the winter and landed on our little lake.
Right down in front of us was a small cluster of birds circling over something.

They were drawing quite a bit of attention from other waterfowl that swam over to see what was going on and some even joined the pack and circled with the rest.
Meanwhile, a young lad was being encouraged by his parents to toss some food to a bigger swarm and he was complying.
All in all, a surprising but good day at the park.
(Sorry we stole your ducks, Pat!)
