After my closing today I slipped out for an hour to enjoy a walk through Mason Neck State Park. In multiple places along the shoreline were signs announcing it was hunting season. The ducks seemed to be testing their luck by swimming right in front of the duck blind.
Was that a Na Na Na you can't get me I heard?
Good evening, Cindy. Those look to be Canadian geese and they are a real bother as the populations are expanding so rapidly that they are hampering other ducks' survival...
Glad you were able to enjoy some solitude and good exercise after the closing. Somehow they must know no one is there.

Cindy, that is funny to see them trying their luck.....I hope luck continues on thier side!
Cindy,
They learn pretty quickly once hunting season starts. Many a hunter have come home empty handed.

Hi Cindy, I loved tthe tite. I suppose if ducks could read, " Come on over, we promise not to shoot you" might also work", LOL.
Cindy, smart ducks come to the District and poop all over the mall. It's totally illegal to shoot them here. Same with raccoons unless they are inside your home.
Michael-yes those are geese and they are going to be dinner if they don't get out of the way.
Cal-hopefully on the weekend when the hunters are out they make themselves scarce.
Ellen-I understand there numbers need to be culled but hate to hear the shotguns.
Kay-I was thinking about offering reading lessons but thought it might be a worthless effort.
Ellie-there is limited hunting allowed in local parks. They are closed to the public during that time. There is also deer hunting allowed during the right season.
William-here ducky ducky. That and a good duck call and you've got dinner.
