I only had a few minutes with the Silver Wood duck at Oakland Lake the last time I saw him. At least they were productive.

Cute stuff, the first is my pick. I really like the look of this silver variety; it's got a certain elegant look to it without all the flashy colors. The second silver shot is reminiscent of your other drying off shot, but this one almost looks more like a sneeze, heh.

Thank you Eric,
I agree they are a very attractive bird. The second is from the same burst as the one you mention yet not cropped.

Thank you Chris,
He is a great surprise and appears to have been born last season.
