I like this duck. Not only is she colorful and very different, she's also friendly and comes from the lake to see you on shore. |

Unusual In One Way or Another.

Friends Share A Log
Who says that the animal kingdom doesn't have friends withing their world. We've all seen stories of animals that team up with unlikely species. Just the last couple of days, a Great Pyrenees sat along the side of the road keeping watch over another dog that had been hit by a car and had died. And, the story about the blind donkey being befriended by a goat that walked the donkey to the pasture every day. Then, at the end of the day walk the blind donkey back to the barn for the night.
Today, it was interesting to spot two turtles on a log--one on each end--with several mallard ducks within inches of the turtle. In fact, the turtle stretched out his hind leg, The turtle was either staking his claim on the spot or just so at peace with the ducks so close it didn't matter if he leg-invaded some territory of the duck. It was an interesting observation to see how this friendship played out. Good. As it turned out.

See the turtle on the right end of the log? Then look at the turtle's hind leg and duck's web foot in proximity. |
