Ducks, and some snow

You may remember our Valentine’s Day snow from 2004.  I took many pictures that day, including several showing these ducks traversing the creek near the lake where I live.  Here are some photos showing not only the ducks, but the great snow storm we had that day.

[Update] I have since identified the white ducks as pekin ducks (a.k.a. domestic ducks, white pekin ducks, or Long Island ducks; Anas domesticus).
