This Duck visited the swimming pool every morning.
He would dive in at the same spot next to the No Diving Sign. I got to watch him for 4 mornings.

Glad to hear you just needed a break & some "me" time, Amanda! Wonderful tones, colors, detail, clarity, & diagonal comp here, my friend! I would say he is a "rebel duck"! WTG!

  We have had a pair of ducks come to our pool every April for the past few years. They stop by every day until June and then they go to their next place! Jeff
