My postcard for 02/04/23 comes from Tingley Beach, filled with an abundance of waterfowl. The Model Boat Pond, in particular, is a gathering place for ducks and geese, drawn by the generous offerings of those who ignore the prohibition against feeding them. Despite the posted signs, the birds have found a happy haven here, quacking and waddling to their hearts’ content.
