Having miscalculated my squares for October I had to find a square to end the month. So I thought a bird at sunset would be an appropriate ending.
A male Mallard in silhouette at sunset in the winter is my day 31 contribution to Becky’s October Squares challenge on the theme of Kind.
A big thanks to Becky for an interesting and varied October Squares. It was bigger challenge than usual for me without an internet connection at home.

Wonderful shot, David!
Thanks Teresa.
What a stunning silhouette. A wonderful way to finish and you are a Square hero for keeping going. Been quite a month, and year!
Thanks Becky. The three birds in silhouette was going to be the last square but I miscalculated after day 26, the butterfly eggs.
ahh butterflies can do that to us!
Actually, the butterfly eggs remind me of the “eggs” in the Alien films that the face huggers hatch from. I’m still looking for a sensibly priced face hugger face mask to wear to the grocery store.
yikes . . . . you will have that store emptying fast!
I’m already unpopular in the local grocery store so a face hugger face mask would only add to my reputation. We very rarely shop there as it’s expensive and aimed at gouging the tourists rather than catering to the locals.
Oh my sounds like a long story!
I’m openly and vocally critical of the prices and this year the tourists not following the Covid-19 rules.
fair enough!
What a stunning capture, David!
Thanks Amy. It was sort of planned. In the afternoon I worked out the best location for silhouetted birds at sunset. I have a few species of silhouetted wildfowl from that day.
A beautiful ending, David 🙂 🙂
Thanks Jo. It wasn’t planned that way. I miscalculated the days left after my day 26 post and had to throw a final post together and rewrite day 30.
But it all turned out well 🙂 🙂
Beauriful capture!
Thank you.
[…] thank you all again for taking us from sunrise to sunset, and helping make October both one of a kind and full of all […]
Fabulous photo 🙂
Thank you. I wasn’t planning on using it. I miscalculated the days left and had to find a square for the last day.
A wonderful accidental post 🙂
I hadn’t looked at it like that.
