From the land of the Bluenose.....well another day of rain but Navy Davy and I weren't thwarded! Lord love a duck.....and I have the feet just like them but at least i don't hang around parks looking for folks to throw me bread crumbs. No sir I go to parks hoping that folks lose some spare change or other goodies.

Hit a not too local playing field that was somewhat generous then went in search of an old ball park in the area that eluded us. Along the way looking for the park had to stop the car. A Kodak moment and a first for this bouy as I have never seen one of these beasts other then in a zoo. Man it was a game of ring around the rosey with that bouy as everytime I circled to get a good shot he circled and gave me one hateful look! Let me tell you me son a manicurist would cringe if it had to do the nails on that amphibious juggernaut.

Grumpy ain't the half of it. Those critters are plumb hostile when they are traveling overland to find a new homestead or whatever. . Maybe she was looking for a nice gravel patch to dig a hole in for a cache of eggs. I see them now and then doing that and they will give you a look like a banker about to foreclose at them times too.

Yuo'd be a mean son of a gun as well if you had to live up there with such short summers. They're swamp critters for the most part and need water and mud to burrow down into to survive the winters.

He's probalby hitch hiking south and can't catch a ride...
