park-side observations from a pre-pensioner

After a particularly unsuccessful day of trying to get an actual job, i went to the park to watch the birdees and take an advance on being a pensioner in 30 years orso. I thought it would be relaxing, and it was

till these punks flew in

and some more dropped by

and they started chasing each other

and before i knew it, i found myself photographing what can only be described -i'm sorry- as a duck gangbang

Now i grew up reading Donald Duck, and that magazine doesn't feature this kind of behavior (i think the magazine that does has a humorous variation on the word 'duck' in the title), so i felt slightly queazy and a bit dirty (not in a good way), but thankfully this guy broke them up

after which the seagulls got over their embarrassment and came back

but the flock of pigeons -a perverted bunch- were disappointed and took off

I love springtime, but next time i see ducks, i'll focus on something else -seeing Daisy being treated that way is a bit shocking
