October goals....the Eider duck

GOAL
My goal in October is to Blog everyday. Here I am 2 for 2. I don’t want to just throw senseless jabber on the Blog, so if I see myself getting to that point, I won’t post.
My set up was for Monday to be all about Music.
Wednesday would be the Quote day.
Saturday would be the AM I day (I copied this from other blogs).
Then I would fill in between. With a full time job, it is difficult to Blog everyday, but I will try. And I will try to keep up with the program.
So today is Friday October 2. Already.
I have this Nature desk calendar and (if you could not tell) I get some of the quotes I post from it. They are quite interesting and moving.
Next Wednesday, I have an awesome quote for you. Yes, it is from the calendar.
Back on Sep 22, the calendar showed the Eider duck eating an urchin. My first reaction was…OUCH!
Then the next day it sowed the same duck swallowing the urchin. Again…OUCH x 2!
These pictures were taken around Canada’s Belcher Islands. Fitting.
For your enjoyment, I linked some interesting items to read on the Eider duck and the Belcher Islands.
