Thank you all for the flood of concerned e-mails inquiring after the health of the nearly drowned goose decoy.
In response, I am posting a photo I took of him a few days ago. As you can see, he is upright once more and languidly floating on calm waters. The only ill effects from his recent dunking seems to be a drooling problem... -----

Good idea on the decoy update. I still amazed by a clouds reflection.
Duck rescue ! the reflections are awesome, I've never seen any large body of water that still...very kool ! ~Cheers~
If you turned it up-sidedown, it would look like the duck is fakking from the sky..nicely composed Kort.
LOL...Even when everything is set back upright, you make it sound funny. I like it! Thanks for making my day great. Aloha
