The beautiful clear waters of duck creek on the west coast of NZ (not a duck in sight)

Oh, I miss green, but I will see it here in May ! April is a month, when snow is melting and everything is dead grey and brown, May is a first spring month.

Nice evening to you!

The foliage along the banks is just beautiful. Looks like a well manicured garden.

It's lovely to see a scene of such lush, vibrant foliage at this time of year when many of us are under a duvet of white snow. A really gorgeous location
