Threatened to extinction a century ago, the wood duck has recovered, aided in part by the placement of thousands of nest boxes. Taken at Burnaby Lake, Burnaby, B.C.
Very beautiful capture - I love your titles - great!
Artist Reply: I think the Wood Duck is the most colorful duck we have here in BC. I try to impart a little humour, sometimes I can think of cute titles, other times, I am dead blank LOL Thanks for stoppin in to make such lovely comments.
Wonderful reflection. I've enjoyed taking a few moments to just drift along with him.
Artist Reply: LOL I spent a few hours drifting with him.. First I had to wait till he got out of the tree he was resting in, then wait until he came close enough to the shore for a worthwhile image. Thanks for the comments, Jaci
Excellent Pamela!!! Ive been away and missed your shots, and our emails! Take care friend!!!!
Artist Reply: I've been absent myself, no worries. I haven't posted much in the past few wks. Thanks for all the compliments my friend. Glad your ok tho!
Artist Reply: I noticed that Drake applies to mandrin ducks as well.. however, none of the books I have refered to them as a Drake so neither did I :) Also if you do a google on Drake Ducks.. you also get mallards and so on.. bit confusing LOL
