Saturday Critters #634

Back in January, on the 24th, I posted about a ride we took to Lake of the Lilies in Point Pleasant.

I shared some of what we saw here.

The entire lake was frozen...I assume it still is.

Along the shoreline of the lake, there were very small patches of water that had not frozen.

The few ducks and coots we saw were hanging out there.

Today...I am sharing the rest of the pictures from that day.

These are not the best pictures, 

the sun has been missing for so long, but they are clear images of some of the winter ducks I see.

The first 4 pictures, the brown duck, is a...
