Oh sure Isabella, rub it in (it's almost summer in Spain). We had a cool summer and now we are heading into winter. Sigh. Lovely photo. My muscovies are rarely that clean.

Hi Alice, I took this photo in June 2007 when I lived in England; I live in the southeast of Spain now and it's almost summer.
