| | | Landing on ice
Technically nowhere near perfect but I just liked the birds shape when coming into land (the feet and the wings)  |

Good shot. Interesting. Do they prepare for landing like this when landing on water? I mean, do they have their feet positioned according to what they think they are going to land on? Just wondering.

Brilliant shot , I had to look for the wings....
I can only imagine the outcome, something from a loony tune cartoon.
I imagine its like an undercarrage of a plane , putting its landing gear down, i assume they use there feet to slow themselves down.
