Fishing must go on even in cold weather 2024-01-04 - Green River Lake - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com.

Sunset Poetry 2024-01-04 - Fairplay, KY - Photo by Veronica Arnold. Veronica writes: This is the sunset January 3rd, 2024, in Fairplay.

That fleeting light and pure delightful bright colored light... it is The Children's Hour! I copied the first stanza below for those not familiar with the poem, The Children's Hour, by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow: Between the dark and the daylight, When the night is beginning to lower, Comes a pause in the day's occupations, That is known as the Children's Hour Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Birds of Kentucky: Muscovy Duck 2024-01-03 - Central Kentucky - Photo by Pen.

Truly wild individuals are restricted to south Texas and points south, but domesticated versions occur in parks and farms across much of North America."
