Autumn means Wood Ducks
p.1 #1Autumn means Wood Ducks
A little outing with John (johnohio) gave us an opportunity for some Wood Ducks though it was a very slow morning and lighting was on and off. We had expected to see many more ducks and other subjects but only a Flycatcher came along for a short visit and there were few ducks.
Just taking what is given to appreciate and work with here are the takeaways
C&C always appreciated, thanks for the visits

7 is my pick Karl, not only because you have both sexes, it has the best white exposure on the male. I should go find some. We have some ponds they love
