On the Beach

Cliff Pond, Nickerson State Park, Cape Cod, Massachusetts

I love Mallards...
 For them, the life looks to be much more than plain survival.
   Enjoying the beach, immersed in grooming,
     must-do work and pleasure come hand in hand.

 And then the views,
   playing with the water in full grasp of the moment,

     in perfect fusion with the spirit of the place...

Cliff Pond: ... in the spirit of the place...

Cliff Pond: ... must-do work and pleasure come hand in hand...

Cliff Pond: ... and then the views...

Cliff Pond: ... in full grasp of the moment...
