Wood Duck male
I don't see Wood Ducks all that often and usually, when I do see them, they are far away. The light wasn't as good as I would have liked this morning at Inglewood Bird Sanctuary, especially first thing, so my photos are not as sharp as they could have been, but I'm still happy to get them. It was another beautiful day, with the temperature getting up to about 17C.
"The Wood Duck is one of the most stunningly pretty of all waterfowl. Males are iridescent chestnut and green, with ornate patterns on nearly every feather; the elegant females have a distinctive profile and delicate white pattern around the eye. These birds live in wooded swamps, where they nest in holes in trees or in nest boxes put up around lake margins. They are one of the few duck species equipped with strong claws that can grip bark and perch on branches." From AllABoutBirds.

It was another beautiful day on 20 October 2018, with the temperature getting up to about 17C. I joined a group of friends for a morning birding walk at Inglewood Bird Sanctuary. Always an enjoyable walk and we saw some of the usual things, including a Great Blue Heron perched way off in the distance, a couple of the deer who live there, and quite a few Wood Ducks (seen in very poor light).
After the walk, some of us drove over to the nearby Blackfoot Diner for lunch. Always fun to sit and chat. Thanks, Janet, for another enjoyable morning.
