Ice-Road Duckers

Ice-Road Duckers

Taken last winter in Rowheath Park Bournville.
These little fella's saw me with my camera and must have thought I had a bag of food, so they all came skating over toward me.

Have to ask this TT - what's the prize? A pair of ice skates perhaps? lol ;o)

First prize is a day with a professional photographer.
Boy is my head big now? LOL.

Well I'm a little disappointed to say the least. Some young lad won the competition with a picture of a squirrel. A picture my grandson could have taken, and no it's not sour grapes. Apparently he got all his friends and relatives to phone in. 'What a swizz' There were some awesome shots in the final ten pictures. One in particular was a swan with it's wings spread over it's chicks like an umbrella protecting them from the elements.

Oh Treetop, never mind. You did well getting so close anyway. At least you did it fair and square eh?

The wife has just given me a good telling off about putting that comment on here about the winner.

Well TT, you just said what you feel, nothing wrong with that.
