Duck walk

An indication of a great day is when something different happens in the morning before work. It can be a snowstorm, a blackout, a phonecall, and in the case of this morning... ducks crossing the street! My question is, since when did ducks learn how to properly cross the street in the first place? I've seen ducks crossing in the middle of the street, but this batch used the lights at a busy intersection. They did not walk diagonally, or in an odd pattern. They would just cross the street how we would normally do, but really really slowly.

Its great to see the aggravation in many faces as the ducks took their time. A car even skimmed a duck by driving around them because work is just SO important. I say let the ducks disturb our "busy" day. No matter how us humans change the landscape, nature has a way of reminding us that we can't control everything.

sometimes those random things are the best.. to cause us to pause for awhile instead of being lost in that constant rush to get to work and keep busy.
