Duck Pond- Central Park

Its spring break week (in case you could not tell from my ability to play with this blog thing). 
You never get everything done thats on the 'list' for times like these but I did do a few things. 

One of which was to walk in Central Park.  Though the weather is wonderful, the plants are just waking up.  Signs of spring are slowly making their way to surface....

The ducks and geese are back. 

This couple wandered around the 'Duck Pond' never more than a few inches away from each other. 

They kept a close eye on the kids tossing bread, but never entered the fray.... later, they wandered to shore and found the left overs. 

The colors of these Wood Ducks are so vibrant...  Iridescent blues and greens.

The geese were more solitary in a way.  They congregated in a larger group but it seemed they fended for themselves.  Noisy bunch.  They reminded me a bit of seagulls in the way they flocked to whichever part of the pond the kids were.  Recognized the handouts right away...
