Those are geese out there not ducks.. You have to click on the photo to make it big to sort of see them. Right in the middle. I was talking to my uncle about the birds he was seeing in Montana. He noticed the doves too, as I've noticed them in the Flathead for the first time that I can remember these past couple of years. He also noticed the golden eagle migration that I had heard about on the CBC and I'm pretty sure he hadn't heard anything about it in the media on online.
People think my uncle is a little odd and I guess that might be a fair viewpoint, but I just think he's in touch with different things. He's more in touch with the outdoors than most people are. In some ways he's a lot more in touch with reality than the rest of us.
I was talking to him and all of the sudden he started to cough as if he were choking. He made this really weird shape with his mouth and had this insane look on his face. He looks a bit insane anyway. It was really strange. I thought he might woof, but then he regained his composure and went on talking about all of the birds in his back yard.

I think your Uncle is pretty neat, actually. I wish I'd have seen his face, the way you describe it, it sounds like it was one of those moments in time worth seeing, that you'll never forget. I like the soft tones in this photo, and I'm always amazed at how calm the lake looks in your photos. What time of day was this?
It was in the morning. The lake is usually calm in the morning until the air starts moving around making waves.
