Walking on Water: Mallard

photo taken of a female mallard at Parker River Wildlife refuge- as she literally runs along the water to build up speed to take off (can see right foot is back by tail, having just pushed off from water).

Wow, he got the same results we used to get skipping rocks over the water! I think he did it better than we did on some occasions! Awesome!

Artist Reply: She definitely has us beat, but then again she has WAY more speed going than we could EVER have hoped to have- her speed would rival even some fo the best Fastball Baseball pitchers of the Major Leagues!!! thanks for the comment- brings back fond memories- If I remember right best I ever did was 8- but NEVER got the kind of splash she did!
