Reflection on the Moat

Every Saturday, participants post photos based on a theme. The theme for this Saturday is REFLECTION.

I remember one of my grandmothers had a small pond where white ducks and some geese would swim when the weather is hot. I wouldn’t go near these though because the geese would always run after me.
