Ah! What a beautiful day it was today in Vancouver. The sun was out and shining bright, it was warm but there was a cool breeze to keep me refreshed. It was a long day at work today to finish off a long week at work.To say it was stressful would be an understatement. But finally I was done all of my work and I was able to take off for a couple of well needed days of rest. I decided I wanted to spend the afternoon at Burnaby lake feeding the ducks, so before I left work I grabbed some seeds and then headed to the paradise in my own backyard. I am spoiled to have such a beautiful and peaceful place so close to home. A ten minute walk and I am there.
It was nice just sitting there away from the hustle of the city. All I could hear was nature at its best and it was such a calming sound. As I threw out the seeds I had brought I was quickly swarmed by different kinds of ducks and the Canadian Geese. It became a feeding frenzy as they all went for the food. The bigger ducks chasing away the smaller ones only to be chased away by the geese. But it was okay I had brought enough to feed everyone and it wasn't long until they were all happy.
I think I have decided that i want to be a duck or a goose. They seem to have a pretty good life. The can fly they are great swimmers and people love to feed them so they don't ever have to worry about food. I love how they are so graceful and watching them come in for a landing on the water is magnificent to watch. Not to mention who wouldn't like to just fly around to all the sunny and warm places in the world and never have to deal with winters. It was a relaxing afternoon and one I hope to repeat throughout the summer.
