Wood Ducks

    The Wood Duck

These ducks have got to be the most colorful of all the duck species. They also have proven to be very hard to photograph in the wild. After three different days and countless hours I've finally mustard up these two shots. Not only were they far away but also in the woods, who would have 

guessed a wood duck in the woods. To get these two I had to stand in a foot of water and shooting thru maybe an 18 inch slot in the trees hoping they would make a pass. Making it even harder the light had to be just right to expose them properly. Anyway this is the results for now, I will continue trying to figure out a better way to locate them in the open for a better result hopefully.
