Paddlers

A hazy winter morning on the Inner Harbour earlier this week found these paddlers setting out and a flock of little Bufflehead Ducks taking off.

  1. Nice contrast with the paddlers going one way and the birds the other.

  2. Is that one big canoe or is that a crew team?

  3. I wonder what the birds think of the paddlers.

  5. Thanks all for your kind comments.

    @Andy - I agree - the birds going one way and the paddlers going the opposite way create a nice opposition that makes the photo more dynamic.

    @JoJo - This was one of about three large canoes traveling together so I think it is probably a paddling club.

    @William K - At this time of year these little Buffleheads are pretty shy - they've only just arrived from the north. Later in the year when they get used to the environment here they get more blasé.

    @Stephanie - I agree.
