Yesterday I mentioned that the ducks were beginning their late summer molt, and there were feathers everywhere. This was part of a line of feathers I saw caught in the duckweed this morning, probably blown there by the wind yesterday. (There's a bluet damselfly there, too, if you look closely, top left.) This molt that the ducks undergo is just a partial one, it doesn't include the wings.
