Love to swim at The Rooftop Pool, Level 30 of The Clan Hotel at Cross Street.
Enjoyed a wonderful 5 days staycation (from 22 ~ 26 Nov 2021) with my BB at The Clan Hotel, Cross Street.

After sunset, the Domestic Swan geese at Newhall Park swim from the periphery of the main pond to an island where they are safer from predators.

Vacation in Merida, Mexico. Some shots from out hotel. Hotel's pool was right outside the back door to our room. We ended up in it almost every time we came back to the room from adventuring.
It was a wild February day on the Dorset coast with stormy skies and huge waves, and they did dither for a bit, but then into the water they went.
Between Tumbler Ridge and Dawson Creek in British Columbia, there are numerous beaver lodges and dams. In one short stretch along the highway, they have constructed a few dams that I am sure will have to come down soon, since the water almost rises up over the highway. I'm not sure how much that will upset the beavers, since their life mission is to construct whatever is necessary to stop the flow of water. They will just relocate a short distance and design and construct a new dam system.
The beavers are quite shy and mostly come out at night, so I have never had many really good photo opportunities. They glide around silently and to throw you off, they will swim long distances underwater. Any motion may trigger them to slap the water with their tails, signaling other beavers that an intruder is in the area. They can be quite curious though and if you sit quietly they will sometimes swim back and forth a few times, sizing you up. That's what this youngster was doing and I think we shared a few minutes as he swam back and forth... until his curiosity was satisfied and he went back to doing what beavers do best, building and eating.
a break from the birds.. the Bosque del Apache is a beautiful place even without the wildlife. Wetlands are few and far between in New Mexico.. so where ever there is water it is precious and sacred.
Someone once told me that rather than jumping from ship to ship they needed to head to shore
Here's to knowing when to swim for it

Anana gracefully swims towards me this afternoon. She was very entertaining today, delighting the crowds.
School's out for the summer and daily high temperatures are in the 90°s, so my kids will be wanting to go to the swimming pool every day. I want my kids to be good swimmers to minimize their risk of drowning, but beyond that, I'm not interested. However, seeing a bird swim is, I find, quite interesting. I was pleased to see this masked lapwing chick paddle past a duck on its way to an island in the pond that is part of its habitat/exhibit at Sylvan Heights Bird Park.
