  31. Somebody was having a nice little snooze until someone came along with his camera! :))))

  32. Frumoasa, dar si amuzanta rata cu cioc rosu-rozaliu. Are, parca, un aspect de soldat tuns scurt si asta ma distreaza teribil. Versiunea "adormita" ma amuza si ea. Felicitari!

  36. What a sweetheart, this duck is just stunning Bob, and I love it's gorgeous colouration. Does it really whistle? I wish that we could see more water birds around here, but we just mainly have the same thing, unless we get a visitor migrating through~
