Friday Funnies

This funnies post is for the birds, seabirds and water fowl or specifically gulls, mallards and Canada geese. WIntry weather this week provided sightings of them on the Nashua River.

These Canada geese had snow on their backs, so I thought of snow geese which is a totally different type of geese. This snowy photo was taken from our 5th floor apartment window during last weekend's snowfall. Snow and Canada geese are both members of the larger goose family (Anatidae), but are distinct species with different appearances (white/dark morphs for Snow, brown/black for Canada). Both share North American migratory patterns. 

When these mallards had gathered after the snowfall had cleared, the expression getting your ducks in a row came to mind because they seemed to be doing just that.

Here's another expression that these gulls brought to mind this week, standing on thin ice as they were doing just that after a thin coating had formed on the Nashua River.

Thanks, as always, for your comments on my recent snow posts. Predictions are that another bout of significant snow could impact Nashua, NH, and other states late this coming weekend. If that's the case for your area(s) too, we hope everyone is safely indoors.

Enjoy Your Weekend, Everyone

Perfect one to start my Christmas gift, a penguin jigsaw puzzle
