They’re baack

I

January 18 pics;  too cold to go to the park these days to check on them. Hope they are not freezing their paddles off.

Here they are hunkering down on January 9. So grateful I have a nice warm house instead of duck fat to keep me alive in winter. 

     Bad news about that lack in the local rag this morning: 10 people in New York City have died this week as a result of exposure to the extreme weather, at least 5 more than is typical for the whole season in past years. What a terrible thing!
