You are welcome!  I had an email that questioned the positioning of the feet
in Harry's photo and it did seem that one of the claws could be missing when
I looked again.  On the way back from running a cerulean survey route on
Skyline Drive I went by and caught it on bare ground.  Both claws are indeed
intact.  I made sure to see both several times before leaving.  Still
beautiful no matter how often I see it!

DUCK

 

Once again, you're awesome! While you were viewing the duck yesterday, I was
looking for it over in the Stony Point Office Park--I had not yet figured
out where the pond was near Forrest Hill Ave. I saw your post and the post
on behalf of Harry Brown as soon as I got home and was able to go back to
the area and find the duck--another new addition to my life list.

Thanks again!
Laura Featherston

OK, he was over under the tree where we first found him the other day just a
little while ago.  Not sure if that was before or after you saw him.  There
was even a lady very close to the duck and the geese, but the geese were not
nervous.  Maybe she was feeding the geese.  Thanks to your photo we now know
the claws are intact!

Yep, .... he's still there.  Right next to the parking lot at the American
Lung Assoc. on Forest Hill Ave.  Some curious onlookers and he seems quite
content to hang with the geese.  If you haven't seen the photos, here's
another:
