Alfred E. Neuman immediately came to mind when I spotted this Northern Shoveler enjoying the morning light.
The Northern Shoveler:
The aptly named Northern Shoveler has a shovel-shaped bill that quickly sets it apart from other dabbling ducks. It is a medium-sized duck that tends to sit with its rear a bit higher out of the water almost like its bill is pulling its front half down.
Perhaps the most outwardly distinctive of the dabbling ducks thanks to its large spoon-shaped bill, the Northern Shoveler busily forages head down in shallow wetlands. Its uniquely shaped bill has comb-like projections along its edges, which filter out tiny crustaceans and seeds from the water.
If the bill doesn’t catch your eye, the male's blocky color palette sure will, with its bright white chest, rusty sides, and green head. The female is no less interesting with a giant orange bill and mottled brown plumage.
Northern Shovelers are monogamous and remain together longer than pairs of most other dabbling ducks. They form bonds on the wintering grounds and stay together until just before fall migration.
When flushed off the nest, a female Northern Shoveler often defecates on its eggs, apparently to deter predators.
The oldest recorded Northern Shoveler was a male, and at least 16 years, 7 months old when he was found in Nevada.

Alfred E. Neuman:
In a 1975 interview with the New York Times, MAD Magazine founder Harvey Kurtzman recalled an illustration of a grinning boy he’d spotted on a postcard in the early fifties: a “bumpkin portrait,” “part leering wiseacre, part happy-go-lucky kid.” It was captioned “What, Me Worry?”
That bumpkin became Alfred E. Neuman, MAD’s mascot, who turns sixty six this year—kind of. The impish, immutable redhead made his official debut in December 1956, when he appeared on the cover of MAD no. 30 as a write-in candidate for president. He’s appeared on almost every MAD cover since: possessing, spoofing, and spooking cultural icons with nothing more than a drowsy rictus.

Why worry
There should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
Why worry now

Mark Knopfler: Why Worry
Here's a little landscape from our local park, on this nice sunny day. It was lovely for Marnie and me to escape just for a little while into the freshness of an early February morning. The sense of freedom was wonderful ! Troubles and worries simply dropped away for bit.
Here's a little fave of mine you might like :

Here the reason why one was missing on the photo
He was too young to follow the group
And very often he needed to rest
But no worry I could see him the days after he was much more fine than the first days
Please zoom in for more details
Voici pourquoi il en manquait un sur la photo.
Il était trop jeune pour suivre le groupe.
Et il avait souvent besoin de repos.
Mais rassurez-vous, je l'ai revu les jours suivants, il était bien plus en forme que les premiers jours.
Merci de zoomer pour plus de details dans la photo

The biggest of the LaSalle County cold air funnels on 7/20 really began to take on an impressive shape when it was at it's largest, as can be seen here. At one point, it looked as if it would touch town, it was so close. While it was roping out, it came the closest to touching, probably as close as 300 feet. It still remained in a rope stage when it became obscured by a rain curtain. Despite what it looks like here, no sirens went off, and it was never much of a threat.
I heard a bump on the window and went outside to see this hummingbird on its side. I gently picked it up and set it down. It opened its eyes, sat for awhile.
when I went to see how it was doing it said adios and took flight.

I worry how these fishermen who throw feed for the birds, to put on a show for the tourists, are coping with Covid & no income from tourists

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight,
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life,
I can feel it coming in the air tonight
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life.
Well I remember, I remember don't worry
How could I ever forget?

Let me stay in this peaceful place,
Where there's never a worry nor care,
Time is of no consequence here.
Given the choice I'd always be there,
The place where I can work hard, or not,
The pace is solely determined by me,
Time to count all the good things I've got,
The attraction here is for all to see,
When days are hard and I want some space,
Let me stay in this peaceful place.
