A Walk in the Park

After getting a little antsy holed up in the motel, I decided I needed to talk a walk.  Carol was being productive with a quilt project she wanted to finish for her friend's birthday, so I went out alone and unafraid ;-)

Found this cute little park, so it was more of a stroll than a walk.  And boy did they have some wildlife.  That and a wedding party, taking their own pictures.  A nice, if somewhat brief, outing.

It was pretty funny watching these ducks with the chicks.  The two in front that originally I thought were the parents, were just the guard dogs.  The went after a few photographers that got too close.  Actually bit one.  Must give the animals adequate space, people!  That's where a telephoto lens comes in handy.

Quite a nice park, with lots of healthy and happy animals.  And they are pretty photogenic, I think!
