Mid-Winter Duck Yoga

Preening Tail Feathers

This feathered yogi practices the Stand On One Leg Touch Tail posture near shore at the Brighton millpond. While it may look like a mass of random duck parts, it’s actually a fully functioning Pekin preening its lower tail area. The orange patch above the beak is its right webbed foot held against its body. The water is very cold now so I imagine the feathers warm each foot periodically throughout the night.
