Normally, this lake would be full of hustle and bustle. Today,
it’s deathly silent, perfect for the ducks to venture as far as they like without
fear of being reprimanded. Not even a plane is rumbling across the sky, giving
them the freedom to fly where they like without having to hide from a noisy
object that’s much smaller than it sounds. It’s as if nature is gaining
confidence against mankind. How big will they get? Will they have the guts to
attack when cars start flowing again and people resume attempting to man the
landscape? Will they occupy the roads forcing drivers to come to a halt to find
an alternative route away from their homeland? I wonder if anything lurking
beneath the lake has decided to make an early rise. A fisherman’s even jumped
the fence to gain access to the jetty for prime position, and there’s no-one to
stop him since it’s not an essential position. Or maybe he’s there to keep the
wildlife subdued.
