Above the Fray

 


Walking in warm sunshine,

ice mushed beneath my boots,

thin coatings of muddy water shine the path to Willow Island, where a feeding frenzy of emerald headed ducks and their hens fend off much taller Canada geese, while pigeons watch from above the fray.








“Birds are, perhaps, 

the most eloquent expression 

of reality.”

~ Roger Tory Peterson

(1908 - 1996)
