Slow Motion Landing

January 14, 2011

sunrise duck

This duck landed much the way a floatplane does (or is it the other way around?). He slowed, put both wings out, extended his orange webbed feet, and in slow motion, gently skidded to a stop. And he did this just moments after a Beaver floatplane thundered away.

I watched him swim out into the reflection of the rising sun.

Frozen Backdrop

Cusheon Lake frozen

Cusheon Lake frozen in time, for a short time.

In colder times, years ago, Cusheon Lake on central Salt Spring Island was the occasionally the scene of a “never ending” hockey game. During a rare cold snap Saltspringers would dig in closets to find long forgotten skates and head to the big frozen pond. The lake might only be frozen for a few days, but no matter when you arrived, or when you came back, the game was on.
