A thousand ducks jumped into the sky

Out in the north pasture this morning, the dog and I startled a flock of ducks feeding alongside the cattle. They headed north, eager to get going.  Then whirled back, unwilling to leave all that food on the ground. It feels like spring. It's still winter. They turned north again and turned back, quacking their great political debate.

Must have been a flock of liberal republican ducks looking for some conservative corn or grass seed in all those cow patties. No doubt you were taken by the beauty of the scene rather than all that quacking.
