One of the joys of Aqua Marine is just spending time doing the simple things in life, like feeding ducks as the sun sets over Lake Cootharaba.

My daughters feeding ducks as the sun sets over Lake Cootharaba

The photo was taken near the Boreen Point boat ramp — about 50 metres from Aqua Marine. Normally there are pelicans here, but not on this day.

If you are feeding the ducks, then remember that bread is ‘junk food’ for ducks. We tried feeding them healthier food, like fresh corn, but the ducks did not seem to like it. We reverted to giving them bread, but only in small quantities.

Aqua Marine is available for holiday rental through Boreen Point Real Estate.
