Day in the Park

 Hi everybody! The Kitty Krew here to bring you today's post. Mommy has been busy so she let us pick the photos. We think this ducky might have gone a little heavy on the eyeliner and shadow. But he's still cute.

 Mommy says these are Mandarin ducks. We think they are very pretty.

 Did you know turtles like sunpuddles (or the sun near puddles) almost as much as we kitty cats?

 This one is called a Whistling duck. We didn't know ducks could pucker up their bills and whistle. Did you?

A few weeks ago mommy had to stop by the library and pick up her case of books for World Book Night. That was the night 25,000 folks (including our mommy) across the US gave away books to non readers in their communities. Since Miss Freda's theme for this week's Photo Time is "Open" we thought this would be a good photo.
