Is that a log, or is that bird with the still mind about to get eaten by the crocodile it is standing on?

Just a thought… (or perhaps )

  You wouldn’t like my interpretation of the quote
  
  Let’s just settle with a quiet bird, sitting on a log in still waters

    I think it’s a nice thought (but I don’t think that it is true)

      The quiet bird, sitting on a log in still waters is true. That is what I saw and even though I say so myself I captured the scene quite well

Great shot of the duck on the log, great reflections…and yes I can settle for calming down with this picture …

To be honest, I think the quote is probably more true than any one of us can possibly imagine.

A perfect complement to my post last week….I love silence…something we have precious little of.
