Hey Joe,
During the storm on Friday, I caught these ducks snoozing away. The snow would build up on them, and they would eventually shudder to get the snow off. As I was watching some were snoozing so heavily that the snow just slid off on its own after it got ~2 inches deep. The photo is a great testament to the effectiveness of down as an insulator. I shot this photo from about 100 feet away, and was shooting through heavy snowfall, so I was pretty surprised that this photo came out at all.
Enjoy,
