Description
I think that most of you know that we live on a lake and the purpose of the lake is that during a Florida hurricane, all of that rain water has a place to go. Our 32 unit condo association installed a pump to supply water, from the lake, for our irrigation system of 210 sprinklers. We use a Styrofoam Canada Goose to suspend the intake pipe up out of the mud so we do not clog the pump. She is a Blue Winged Teal Duck and her only teal color is in the tips of her wings. I thought that the photo was cute and I liked the shimmering reflection.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favorites and comments. They are very much appreciated.

very cool capture and an innovative way of maintaining the status quo. I just had to download Hitchin' a Ride from Amazon.com

A perfect or should I say a hilarious landing spot - for another duck, 'no man is an island' - comes to mind but that would be wrong, right ? ... cool snap Dana ;P BB

One very funny shot. Wonder what that duck is thinking? Super on zoom, nice shot.

This is a great shot! The decoy is very well made, but when I first saw the shot I said to myself, "no self-respecting goose would calmly accept a duck on its back like that". This is certainly a fun shot with lovely reflections...well spotted. Thanks for sharing. :)

Well Dana, you had me fooled! I just accepted the goose as real and wondered how it would allow a different species on its back...now I think I'm the silly goose!
