Small Town Survival

The weather was pretty nice this weekend, or I should say that the sun was out. It's still February and still a bit cold out (especially if you get out of the sun). We (that's Andreas and I again) decided to go into town, mostly I wanted to take some photos and he's a good sport about going with me or encouraging me to do so. We didn't exactly get into town though because I remembered the university park and thought it might provide me with some nice photo opportunities without having to go all the way to the city center. It might have been my lucky day.

We wandered down to the lake and saw that people were feeding the ducks. Sadly, I didn't have any bread so I couldn't join in but we managed to get a few shots.

This little girl was very excited to be feeding the ducks and was very enthusiastic with her bread throwing. I think the ducks appreciated it too since she tended to toss out the occasional large piece of bread.

There were a lot of ducks out there, this picutre doesn't even show half of them I bet. I like to see their shiny green heads in the sun though, it reminds me of the pond near my mom's old office building where I used to spend quite a bit of time.

I didn't know ducks played follow the leader but they surprised me with their organization when they know there's bread to be had.
