Thursday’s Special – Female

Posted on May 25, 2017 by Miriam Hurdle 16 comments

Paula at “Lost in Translation” hosts Thursday’s Special. The theme for this week is: Female.

I captured two female ducks and a hen by Laguna Lake where we take our walks. I also took photos of two female birds incubating, one in my front yard and one in the back yard.
