This duck came all the way across the lake to see us, hoping for crumbs. Sadly, we had none.

Dressed-up Detritus Bird

Okay, I cheated a bit. Just no real doves or darters in my photo files. I made these detritus birds out of shells and a fruit crate that washed ashore during past years at the beach. Keeps me out of trouble.

About lifelessons

My blog, which started out to be about overcoming grief, quickly grew into a blog about celebrating life. I post daily: poems, photographs, essays or stories. I've lived in countries all around the globe but have finally come to rest in Mexico, where I've lived since 2001. My books may be found on Amazon in Kindle and print format, my art in local Ajijic galleries. Hope to see you at my blog.

    Love all your detritus ducks! I’m a little surprised that the duck in the first two shots swam across the lake rather than flying — that was a lot of efrort for no reward, but he must have had reward on other occasions!

    You did not show a “Keebird”. Common to the Dakotas~! It sits on a frozen barbed ware fence with its tail on one side and his head on the other. Its call is “KEEE-rist, it’s cold~!

      That’s my favorite, too. I actually kept that one and it’s on my animal wall in the doggie domaine. In addition to the fact that the dogs needed their own room, it was worth it just to get more walls to hang artwork on!
