How do you spell tranquility?
Quack!
How about a cabin on a lake, with ducklings…….
wait up, quit quacking around,
and of course Canadian goslings…..it’s Canada after all!
What could possibly be more calming,
than a peaceful lake,
with paddling ducks,
on a sunny day,
in Canada?
Cheers to you from all the Canadian quackers!

Yes, all the little gooslings around here have also hatched and it’s lovely and tranquil watching them waddle along the waterways and across the streets. Have a wonderful week!
Oh how wonderful! Love them crossing streets. A blogger posted photos of them doing this in Chicago protected by a police car!! Love their priorities!!! 😉
Wow…now that’s cool!
what cuties
Yep. I think their parents know it! 😛
That cabin looks like it would be great for a relaxing holiday…
So many such places is Canada!
What an awesome place! You lucky ducky!
Chuckles for the lucky duckies!
😀
The reflections are outstanding!
Awwww, so kind~
I love how you have caught the reflections and the lighting showing all the cute fluffiness of the ducklings
Thank you for noticing Pauline & cheers to you and Jack~
What a lovely place!! I can only imagine the peaceful feeling of spending time in that cabin 🙂 love the reflections in the photos. Great job!
Well thank you so much! I am a big fan of your blog and posts! Cheers to you~
Cheers 🙂
Well how cool is that?

Doda 🙂
Nature at it’s sweetest! So glad you enjoyed~
Reblogged this on The Hunt FOR Truth and commented:
Memorial Day is right around the corner… I hope to get away from the crowds and spend some time in nature… how about you?
I am honored by your thoughtfulness and hope you have a wonderful weekend in nature!!
The fluffy babies are so cute! I love the reflections on the water that you’ve captured.
I think Clowie might enjoy a dip in the lake!!! 😉
Hi Cindy! So happy I discovered your beautiful blog! I want to transport myself to this gorgeous place, sit on an adirondack chair, while sipping wine as I watch the geese go by. Just lovely! ~Karen~
Exactly!! But your good imagination can take you there too. Thank goodness we have this ability & cheers to you!
Heaven! Visited my niece near Seattle. they have a lake with ducklings too. It is a very peaceful experience to watch them waddle and paddle around.
Yes…..so wonderful to find natural places that provide emotional sustenance. Natural highs!!! 😉
Wonderful images, Cindy. The goslings and ducklings are too cute. 🙂
I can’t resist them!
aww so sweet:)
Sweet is good. We need more sweet!!
You spell tranquility as b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l and a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e! 😀
Laughing…….maybe you need some ducks???? Just kidding. I think your menagerie is nicely balanced at this point! 😉
ACK!! or quack? I love ducks. I had one when I was a kid living in the hotel. I named him Dinky and he followed me around. The menagerie may be nicely balanced but then there’s the question of me! HaHa! 😛
Yes the menageries mama needs a vacation!!!!
Cindy – Finally, it’s my lucky day. I have the pleasure of visiting you and never a disappointment at the end of your lens. You’ve captured the pure essence of mother nature and tranquility in the purest form.
For you my dear I would do anything to send you some peace and tranquility. You absolutely deserve lots of it! Hugz~
Thank you, my friend. I had 2 big breaks yesterday in pursuing advanced health care for Tom. He’s very ill and I’ve been away from the blogging world trying to stay above water. Yesterday was indeed a great day. NIH has agreed his medical care is so complex they are willing to send 2 physicians to consult on the case and then perhaps actually take Tom on as a patient. I have high hopes.
Excellent news, due I might add, to your diligent efforts as an effective advocate. Once he gets in treatment is there a possibility for a vacation for yourself? You my dear are due from some major TLC and pampering~
What beautiful little fluff-balls of cuteness!!! 😉
I love that descriptor!! Could have been the title!
World’s cutest little ones!!
“cuteness” personified….little flufflers~
These photos spell tranquility perfectly – wonderful shots, Cindy, made me smile 🙂
Yay! That certainly was my hope~
Ducks are so sweet and funny. Their quacking and the way they upend themselves in the water never fails to make me laugh.
Particularly when they do it in a synchronized fashion. Swans do this a lot and it is hilarious…..bottoms up everyone! 😉
Hi Cindy, I will be off to Spain on Sunday. Since it’s such a well packed trip, I may not get to visit you until we are back the second week of June. Happy travel 🙂
Oooooh I love Spain. Happy, safe travels, and bon voyage!
Oh Cindy. Stunning. Beautiful photos. I enjoyed looking at them over and over again. This Canadian girl appreciates you. Thank-you. Renee 🙂
I appreciate you!!! <3 <3

I must move there right away. That bottom shot is just off the charts–surreal goodness.
I know what you mean! It’s what I think everytime I’m there!!! Thank you my friend~
So sweets!!! And so gorgeous water optical effect 🙂
Thank you for noticing the water optical effect! I am thrilled you did!!! 🙂
What a beautiful, peaceful setting. I’d love to simply “set a spell,” reflect, and enjoy the lovely reflections!
Awwww, wish you had been there Jody, but……it’s never too late to go! Cheers to you my friend~
Liebe Cindy ganz tolle Tierfotos super gelungen das Glück hatte ich noch nicht Gänseküken zu fotografieren ein schönes Wochenende wünsche ich dir Klaus in Freundschaft
Vielen danke Klaus! Freundschaft Cindy. 🙂
Love these ahh shots1 They don’t stay fluffy for long so it’s good to catch them early. Like all the different greens in your pictures
True, they only stay tiny and fluffy like this for a very short time! It is the best time. Thanks to you & cheers too~
Very calming post – wonderful photos!
Thanks so much, we certainly need calming in our crazy modern world!
They are adorable. Alas, you know what their fate would be here…
Yes I think that is just a canard!!!!! 😉
Mais oui! 😉

Awww, thank you!!!
The way you capture reflections is so outstanding, Cindy! I love the precious ducklings photo the best of all!
They are pretty adorable aren’t they! I wonder if they know it??????
