Description
I was back at the place where they brought some old 1800's houses and made it into a history park. The day was overcast. I took this shot on my break.
I almost lay down to get the shot of the old house you all like with the cyprees knees in front.. I was thinking of the shot and trying to line it up when this duck came out of the water between the cypress knees and it scared me. When I saw it was a duck I took it photo. I took some more of the duck then I walk over to this thing you put 25 cents in and get some animal food. That duck walked right by me like a dog knowing just what to do. I took more as it ate. May post them later.
I will post the house shot too later.
I thought of me in the swamp lol here a duck can sneak up on me with out me knowing about it. I could have walk and step on a gator before I know what it was.
I not like I was in the woods . When I was young I was running as fast as I can and something in my head tell me to jump as high and as far as you can ; I did. When I stop and look back I saw a big ratter snake coil up and it tail rattering ready to bite me. I just ran away knowing the snake wound kill a mouse later on [I guess? I just do not like to kill snakes I know they good for something] Why I tell you this to show your skills of a woodman can change over the years if you do not go into the wood. So watch out if you go into the woods.
