Mud Hens

It's the time of year when we see the ducks and other birds gathering to go south to a new food supply. It's also a dangerous time for the critters. We scared these ducks while out on a sunset boat cruise. Earlier in the day, a friend was out in his Kayak and observed nature and death. One of this duck species hustled into the "safety" of cattails to escape the boater. A mink was hiding, grabbed the duck and pulled it under to drown it. Lunch.
