Taking a dip

There really weren’t many birds at Constitution Gardens the other week – one cormorant and some female mallards. I don’t know where all the insects and birds have gone!

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly unsharp.

Lovely and sharp image from this nice duck, Here it is just the same Helen, the insects are absent probably the climate?
