A couple of drakes go bobbing for food under the water, and then somebody decides to take pictures of their collective backsides. What is this world coming to when a bunch of ducks can’t eat a meal in peace? Well, the ducks don’t care. They’re focused on snapping up little bits of plant matter or bugs. Do ducks eat fish? Yes, it seems they do, after a quick Goog’n.
So, really, they’re just down there snapping up whatever they can eat – whatever gets close enough. They can even eat small amphibians, like frogs or toads. Is there anything they don’t eat?
Making a Break for It
He's trying to make a getaway, but obviously, it's going to take him a while. We all know slugs as one of the slower creatures of the animal kingdom relative to their size. In fact, slugs are some of the slowest creatures on Earth, able to move just six and a half inches per minute. We guess that's what happens if you only have one foot. And one lung. And no spine.
Still, at least they leave that cool little trail behind them, so you see exactly where they've been. This single picture looks like a few hours of work for the subject.
So That's Where the Name Comes From
Yes, believe it or not, real frogs do actually play leapfrog. You might think that's obvious, but there is tons of misinformation out there about what animals do and don't do. Did you know that vultures don't sit around asking each other what they want to do all the time?
However, we doubt that these frogs actually got together to have real fun – we assume that they were all just taking a quick kip on the same log, and then one of them decided to move on. It's a pretty good action shot, all things considered, and we like the colors, too.
The Food Goes in the Hole
The thing about most animals is they have maybe three things on their minds at all times – safety, food, and children. After that, there isn't much that goes through their tiny, tiny brains. These pelicans are focused on the second option of the three, and one of them has made it easy to toss something yummy straight inside its mouth.
This could be fish, preferably, but we bet that most pelicans wouldn't mind Oreos or something like that. They're vegan! Seeds and fruits are also fine, but fish is generally the best choice.
This Is Our Neighborhood
In certain parts of the world, you have to be careful about where you go, or you might come across this gang of toughs. No, deer aren't the bravest animals in the world, and most will just flee, but getting on the wrong side of one can still be dangerous. Even while driving, you aren't safe – they refuse to look both ways.
They also have eyes that will reflect absolutely all light right back at you, giving us this picture and the “deer caught in the headlights” idea. We count six deer, and some of them aren't even looking in the camera's direction.
