Dazzling Ducks


This morning with the Sun behind me I had the chance to get a few good pics of the Pintail and Mallards. The clear cold weather gives them quite an appetite for the wheat grain, and the Pintail duck likes his share too ! With spring approaching, the Ducks are starting to get their truly dazzling colours and the Drakes are having domination fights to impress the ladies.

Hi Grove... had a look at your bufflehead ducks. The pintail duck is a totally different species. Your bufflehead looks like a cross between a Mallard and something else.
