    The wintry ice and the mallard look so cold there on the Cape. The Kindergarten boy is so cute with his rosy cheeks

    Beautifully creative series as always Carol. I do think there is something about the oceans/coasts that brings out creativity! The Kindergarten boy is so sweet ...a relative?

    It looks quite cold in your neighborhood. I wouldn't really want to be out in that snow, but it's nice to see it all through your eyes. That delightful little boy certainly warms things up!

    What a lovely haiku! That certainly does look cold. I always think those duck feet have to be freezing, but they seem to be able to handle it.

    That t-shirt reminds me of Space Invaders! Though it's probably from a more up-to-date computer game! I think Mr. Mallard must have cold toes!!

    every time I come here, I hanker for a dog because of the sweetness in your dog's sweet face! then the reality of going out several times a day in this frigid weather, and...no dice, cats it is for me.
    I'm hearing no birds' serenade here, but I'll try to imagine it.
    blessed be
