Wood Ducks and the White Cat
1

At the end of October I was out for a walk on a cloudy day. I saw this white animal. I wasn't sure what it was until I zoomed in. This cat followed the ducks. Some of them were wood ducks. I don't know if the cat was just curious or was looking for a meal.

Photo No. 1 - OK here we begin.  I started the walk towards this pond.

Photo No. 2 - Here is the pond.  Normally this time of year, the colors would have been better.  But we had a warm early autumn.

Photo No. 3 - And here's the white animal.  Oh, it appears to be a large cat.

Photo No. 4 - I needed more zoom, so I used the camera with the Canon 55-250mm lens.

Photo No. 5 -The cat did everything to get close including walking on this stick, but I don't think it wanted to get wet.

Photo No. 6 - They all wandered further away and then I got more interested in these wood ducks.

Photo No. 7 - The wood ducks were on the opposite side.

Photo No. 8 - I could not get any closer and I didn't have my Tamron 150-600mm lens with me.

Photo No. 9 - So this was about as close as I could get.

Photo No. 10 - The next time I did bring the Tamron 150-600mm lens but they were hard to photograph.  I'll have to remember to bring the large telephoto lens with me each time in case I get another opportunity.
