One morning before work, I decided to take a drive. I wanted to find the Bluebirds, but I think they were hunkered down somewhere, staying warm, as it was a pretty cold morning and we had a recent snowfall overnight. I didn't see much, but I did see this goose swimming by itself in the river. It was pouring water over its body as it was swimming, I'm guessing to get rid of all of the ice that was building up on its feathers, but it was pretty cold, so the ice was building up more. It didn't seem affected by the ice, kept swimming around, chasing ducks out of its way while swimming towards a smaller flock of geese.
