I thought there was only one entity that could walk on water. I humbly stand corrected.

4 Wisefool 06.22.06 at 4:02 pm

His cuteness defies laws of physics.

5 Theo 06.22.06 at 4:02 pm
6 alma 06.22.06 at 4:03 pm

Wow. Amazing capture.

7 A thinker 06.22.06 at 4:05 pm

“Ooooooh!”

A sqee, from a normally non-squee-ish girl. The pic is too perfect, but the duck is too cute.

8 Steff 06.22.06 at 4:05 pm

Steff — look under the heading “Got Cute®?” in the left-hand margin.

10 Bubbles 06.22.06 at 4:18 pm

I looooves duckies! We go to the lake almost every Saturday during the summer to feed them. Such redonkulous quacking! But the geese tho – that’s another story.

11 Julie 06.22.06 at 4:22 pm

Ack! Duckeh! After I collected the remnants of my exploded head, I remembered that David Blaine walks on water too!

Glurp!
?????????
when the action-on-screen is most certainly
Ehn! or for emphasis
Eeeehhnnn!

13 jaypo 06.22.06 at 4:30 pm

Make way for ducklings! On the way to work yesterday traffic was stopped while a mom and 9 babies crossed the road.

14 mariser 06.22.06 at 4:31 pm

Steff,

Rocky is anerable! such an inquisitive look. do send the pics to Meg, but be warned: Meg probably gets eleventy billion submissions a day…

15 E. Collison 06.22.06 at 4:32 pm

Definitely an “Ehn!” moment!

16 Mick Gordon 06.22.06 at 4:33 pm

Amazing picture, I guess that a shot that was’nt set up, just had to be there at the right time. Looks like he is walking on water.

17 Villeline 06.22.06 at 4:38 pm

Hey, this is not cute, this is beautiful! :)

18 Aubrey 06.22.06 at 4:43 pm

It was the calm before the storm, before an underground earthquack that would create worlds and destroy others. Behold:

Quackatoa: East of Java

19 Otter 06.22.06 at 4:47 pm

That is such a great image!
And yes cuteness is overwhelming as well

20 jaypo 06.22.06 at 4:49 pm

LOL, Aubrey! ::snort::

21 Mia 06.22.06 at 4:56 pm

despite all the efforts the lil duckling made in this attempt to get the fly……he failed.

haha just kidding!

22 Theo 06.22.06 at 5:00 pm

Aubrey — you are a loon.
(That’s another bird, btw, that walks on water… or more accurately, *runs* over the surface during takeoff)

23 hanna 06.22.06 at 5:07 pm

another water-walking creature: the jesus christ lizard!

Everyone likes to be on top once in a while:

25 Kris, in New England 06.22.06 at 5:13 pm

Wow – aside from the incredible cuteness all over the place here, the photograph itself is astonishing.

26 Silence Dogood 06.22.06 at 5:20 pm

When I first looked at this it took me a second to figure out what it was. If you look at the head, it looks like a rabbit facing left (the beak is the ears).
Definitely cuter when seen as a duck. Rabbits’ necks shouldn’t be so skinny.

27 Carbontetra 06.22.06 at 5:25 pm

now THIS is the epitome of “Enh!”

28 chacha 06.22.06 at 5:26 pm

ducklings have gotta be THE cutest bird babies. This is one fantastic photo. 2 snaps up to the snapper!

29 jaypo 06.22.06 at 5:30 pm

SilenceD–now that’s an interesting perspective…

30 msumissa 06.22.06 at 5:54 pm

He looks like he is gargling first think in the morning for a great quacking voice!

31 rpennefe 06.22.06 at 6:22 pm

SilenceD: Wow! If I squint while tilting my head to the right…I CAN SEE THE BUNNY!

Bizarre!

32 punkpie 06.22.06 at 6:25 pm

Theo I’m glad I’m not the only one who calls them “duckles” LOL

so cute!

33 ljlucy 06.22.06 at 6:25 pm

Just for the record, glurp is a wonderful example of onomatopoeia

34 E. Collison 06.22.06 at 6:41 pm

Me, too (“rabbit”), though its nose appears to be missing.

35 Claire 06.22.06 at 6:43 pm

The wings! The itty bitty useless little wiiiiiings!!!!

36 Annie D. 06.22.06 at 6:48 pm

All he needs is a long, lizardy tongue. Otherwise, I think he’s perfect!

37 Aubrey 06.22.06 at 7:13 pm

I detect a delicately raised webbed foot.

My knees are buckling at the sight of this duckling.

38 sylvie 06.22.06 at 7:46 pm

this is the cutest thing i have seen for a while and is amazing photography. love it!

39 Denita TwoDragons 06.22.06 at 7:57 pm

Why is it that, on first seeing this pic, I had the “Jaws” theme song running in my head…played by a hundred clowns on kazoos?

“We’re gonna need a bigger bo–naaah, maybe not.”

–TwoDragons

40 Kristin Schaffrick 06.22.06 at 7:57 pm

this pic is going in the hall of cuteness

41 Theo 06.22.06 at 8:05 pm

“played by a hundred clowns on kazoos”

You are a scary, scary woman, Denita.
[shivers]

42 Selo 06.22.06 at 8:20 pm

I’m trying not to make any more Jesus jokes while typing this comment.

43 Mina 06.22.06 at 8:52 pm

I submitted this to cuteoverload.com ages ago! Bah!

44 Lauri 06.22.06 at 9:12 pm

I hate to sound like a dimwit, but what exactly is that “imreallysad.com”?
Is it simply a collection of pictures?
And, if so, why is it really sad?

45 Theo 06.22.06 at 9:14 pm

Lauri — yep. It’s like CuteOverload without the wit.
Apparently the pictures are supposed to make it feel better.

46 melonbar 06.22.06 at 9:16 pm

What a fabulous photograph. The water droplets, the streeeeetch, it’s ehn-tastic.

47 greenighs 06.22.06 at 9:50 pm

Flies? Flies? Who wants to eat flies? [/Renfield voice]

48 Aubrey 06.22.06 at 10:22 pm

I just love the fact – and am reminded of it every day – that CO not only has unbridled cuteness but is also teeming with wit.

49 AuntieMame 06.22.06 at 10:47 pm

And a few halfwits, too.

Ehn, duckie, ehn!

Down to the river
They would go
Wibble, wobble, wibble, wobble,
To and fro
But the one little duck
With the feather on his back
He led the others
With a quack, quack, quack

Quack, quack, quack,
Quack, quack, quack
He led the others
With a quack, quack, quack

50 ElfOwl, B.S., M.A., I.W.T.F.M. 06.22.06 at 11:16 pm

I love it! A once in a lifetime shot, and the colors are just stunning as well!

And Aubrey, I love you, but sometimes your puns are just . . . fowl. :-P

51 ka9q's wife 06.22.06 at 11:45 pm

hey Auntie Mame i identify with the halfwit remark.

OMG this is a beautiful picture and i wonder if he indeed got the bug he was going for. From the looks of the water i would say no…poor baby duckie.

52 Aubrey 06.22.06 at 11:46 pm

Elf:
Such a comment! That ‘fowl’ is making me ‘bawl’.

53 Arvay 06.22.06 at 11:51 pm

Oh Elfowl, I always love to see puns heron CO, but birds provide special opportunities, and it would be egretful to let them pass.

So please sparrow me a kind thought as I sit here robin my employer of productivity; I hope you tern your mind around, or at least refrain from anything so harsh as t’osprey fowl abuse at us poor punners.

54 Arvay 06.22.06 at 11:53 pm

Aubrey, I hope you don’t quail out of discouragement!

(I’m such a goose–maybe I should just duck and cover!)

55 Darcy 06.22.06 at 11:58 pm

Bwahaha!!!!!!I thought it was a drawing of some kind of weird yellow bunneh too!!!!!!!!! That is so strange other people ACTUALLY thought that! THAT’S…..um, weird.

56 Teddy 06.23.06 at 12:13 am

this is the best picture so far. How do people get these shots?? i’m so jealous

57 Aubrey 06.23.06 at 12:32 am

Should I hawk my wares here? I think I should, feather or not. Though sometimes I don’t think I have the gull. My efforts don’t always leave them raven. In fact it gives people a nasty tern and often leaves them bittern.

58 Arvay 06.23.06 at 12:38 am

Aubrey! How raptorous to see that you will not bower down!

59 Aubrey 06.23.06 at 12:45 am

It takes talons to do what we do. Literally.

60 Theo 06.23.06 at 12:56 am

LOL Arvay! Bringin the punfight to teh Aubbers, with interest. Only one will survive, I wonder who it will be?

Believe you me, before I head home, I will cassowary eye o’er my shoulder (lest I go the way of the dodo).

61 Aubrey 06.23.06 at 1:10 am

Theo, shame. Egging me on like that.

62 ElfOwl, B. S., M. A., I. W. T. F. M. 06.23.06 at 2:01 am

Considering I’m watching my Rice Owls lose to Oregon State right now (Go OWLS!), Aubrey, you better run, cuz I might have to strike you for the fowl bawl punning. It was way off base.

(GO OWLS, DANGIT!)

63 Aubrey 06.23.06 at 2:21 am

Oh, Elfie. Personally I ad-mitt that this bat-tle cut like a diamond and witnessed no error.

64 ElfOwl 06.23.06 at 2:31 am

S’a good thing my boys can catch flies better than duckie. I just wish we could hit somewhere an infielder *wasn’t*.

65 J. Bo 06.23.06 at 2:31 am

DUCKEE!

(An ex of mine used to have a crush on a girl named Linda Duckworth. Haven’t thought of that in years…)

66 JAWjaw 06.23.06 at 2:40 am

Great catch!

67 Janet with Angus and Misha 06.23.06 at 3:46 am

Between the bun with helicopter ears and this little feathered friend, I am immobilized. Thank you!

68 Arvay 06.23.06 at 4:59 am

Theo, I think y’ostriching this emusing verbal sparring into more of a battle than necessary. It’swan thing to engage in friendly banter, quite another to imply that a pun could be a flame-in go-ing that direction you could put a damper on the fun!

69 Aubrey 06.23.06 at 6:17 am

Look – toucan play at this game.

But do I want to? It’s like a car out of control. I have to slam my feet on the drakes, plover and jump out. Such owling and mocking-heard never before! Time to depart-rigid rules of etiquette dictate that it’s time that I thrush out of here!

70 Netherland Dwarf rabbit, owner!!♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 06.23.06 at 6:49 am

Duck a’la orange you cute!
:)

71 Theo 06.23.06 at 2:59 pm
72 Arvay 06.23.06 at 4:28 pm

Well then to keep things eagle, I shall duck and bow out as well. :)

73 Clotypus 06.23.06 at 6:05 pm

What an incredible shot! I wonder if he gets the bug :)

74 ag 06.23.06 at 8:05 pm

What kills me is the gap in the neck fluff. clearly that neck has NEVER been ratcheted out that far before.

And I agree, the teeny useless wings…

75 anon 06.23.06 at 9:33 pm

Arvay, Aubrey + Theo – this banter, and pic has made my day! thank you for being so hilarious!

76 Cisne 06.24.06 at 2:43 pm

Spectacular punning to go with a spectacular picture! Where else but on Cute Overload?

77 BabyGuru 06.25.06 at 1:29 am

You guys are incredible, avray and au-brey. And Theo, but he cried uncle.

Jesus Christ Lizard, indeed.

LOL!

I’ve heard the phrase ‘jesus lizard’ but I figure it was a random thing like “eddie izard”, or the name of a band.

Or something.

78 vicky 06.25.06 at 4:25 am

ITS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
