Thai and Quack-ers

What a delicious dish. Laura cooked up some Thai noodles and added vegetables to it. Then we added our ducks and TA-DA a wonderful meal. You can see Laura decided it was nice to eat with chop sticks while I decided the trusty fork would satisfy my hunger needs. We have been trying different meals lately, which has been nice, we could use some variation from our bowl of cereal or sandwich. It just seems that we stay busy enough that we decide there isn't time to make a meal.

We have also been trying to do some geocaching when we get some free time. One of my favorite parks in Missoula is just down the mountain from where we live. It has some ponds that ducks like to hang out at. While we geocache I love to take pictures of any and everything. Here's a few pictures of ducks at the park. I was hoping to get a picture of a BIG hen mallard, but there were people all around the ducks and she wouldn't hold still long enough to get a good shot.

If you have never watched ducks walk or land on ice you are missing out on one of the funniest things on Earth! When a duck lands on water the are able to use their feet to stop themselves when they land. But ducks are a clumsy on ice as we humans are. When they land they slind along, usually on their fronts, sometimes for several feet depending on how fast they are going! I always get a good laugh out of it! You can see in the picture of the single duck there's a slide mark across the picture, just above the duck. He must has slide nearly six feet! I wish I would have gotten a picture of him landing, it would have been a great laugh!
