Still Waters.

The peace and quiet along the river towpath.
Reflections on an almost still lake.
A Tuftie only makes a tiny ripple.
Even the Dabchick doesn't make waves.
And then along comes the heavyweight creating a bow wave and plenty of ripples.

PJB Update: After weeks of apparent brain inactivity there have been recent signs during the regular family visits and confirmed by his Nurses that PJB may be recognising sounds and his eyes appear to follow some movements around him. It is still too early to really understand where this may lead but perhaps the words and prayers will produce even more ripples.  FAB.

  5. Wonderful shots! Where I live on the West Coast of Canada, we have a wide variety of water birds to photograph, and I do so as often as I can...:)

  12. Hi Everyone. Thanks again for your visits and complimentary comments. I'm delighted that the new header has your approval.
    BTW the original derivation of dab-chick was probably 'dipping duck'.

    I'm way behind on my reading list but I'll get around to you all as soon as possible. Cheers FAB.
