This female Merganser caught my eye as she swam by at a fast clip through Whitaker Pond. I was captivated by the lovely reflections, not only of the duck itself, but also by the trees along the shore. You would never know from this photo that this pond is in the midst of an industrial area of town. It’s always a pleasant surprise to find quiet places in the city, like Whitaker Pond, to delight in nature. For me, it’s gratifying to take a stroll along the trail that surrounds the pond. It’s not a long walk, but it’s comforting nonetheless.
