Wood Ducks at Quiet Waters

We got very nice weather again today. A little cold, but plenty of sunshine. I went back to Quiet Waters to try my luck again, and had a very reasonable day. I spent about three hours in the morning, and another two hours this afternoon. I also got to talk to a couple of good birders and compare notes for future expeditions.

The Common Loon is one of my favorites. Sleek, attractive and all business.

These Lesser Scaup should have moved to a breeding ground by now.

Look in the air anywhere in Quiet Waters and you may see an Osprey.
