    They are like great, lumbering Sherman tanks when they try to take off, Joe.

    Such a difference from the elegant birds which just 'float' down rivers!

    Well caught!

    LOL, Catherine has hit the nail on the head again - they are so lumbering taking off or landing, yet so graceful when floating I like the last shot with the splash all behind.
