These 3 ducks were in the shade of a tree, their feathers all ruffled while they gossiped!!! As I walked up to taking their picture I overheard what the one duck said and of course had to related the tale to you.

I've decided to come clean and tell the true story of these duck...the little tale above was to interpret the photo....but here is what really happened!

These ducks were actually quacking back and forth, I was amazed, they were really talking to each other. Of course, they got into the biggest fight when they finished!!! The smaller one in the front got hurt, I was going to pick her up and bring her to the vets, but the ungrateful wretches decided to make me their mark, they turned on me and chased me, you can just imagine the sight that was! Me grappling with open tripod and camera bag (no STEVE!!!) running for my life!
I made it safely to the vehicle to return here and tell the tale!

This was taken in Lafreniere Park, different ducks from the 4 Snobs . I hope you enjoyed the photo.

Okay...here's what I did, or what I remember doing:
Clarified
Unsharp mask
Framed and captioned

Have a great day!

Hi Fran,
well seen they really seem to have a nice little chat together. Nice light and good colors. Lovely details. A very cute composition.
Who could have guessed they turned that mean.
TFS..Sky

I think they look like male ducks, and of course they'd chase you Fran, take that as a compliment!! That's their way of wanting to get to know you!!! Now, who do those 3 remind you of?
Good shot, I love it, and especially the story behind it.
Kia ora

"Pick a little, talk a little, pick a little, talk a little, cheep cheep cheep, talk a lot, pick a little more..." (remember that one from The Music Man?) That was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw your title!

I'm grinning at your note! So cute. :))))
