Hello everyone. Glad to be back to join this contest I missed for a while. Welcome to Show Me A Photo Contest (SMAP) Round 66 hosted by 
The theme for the week is
BIRD ON ROCK /STONE
I was quite sure I was going to miss this Round again. Aside from the past weeks being busy ones for me (tax season till 3rd week of April), the past couple of themes were quite difficult for me and I just couldn't find suitable pictures for them. I was ready to pass and wait for next week. Until my daughter in Germany sent some photos she took on an afternoon spring walk last week. I just looked at them for a moment and suddenly remembered the theme for this Round and so here I am. Happy to be participating again.
This is a park near her place which she sometimes go to, weather permitting. As you can see it has a lake in the middle which is a perfect place for a few aquatic animals and feathered friends. In the photo above, a mallard (I believe) decided to hop onto these rocks and take a break from paddling around the lake. Little did he know he was about to be featured in the Blockchain lol.
And that's all. Wishing the best of luck to all participants. All entries have been awesome so far. I know more are coming. Another difficult task for our distinguished judge,
