Ring-necked Duck
20151103-_DSC5270
The ring-necked ducks were w-a-a-a-y out there as usual, so had to generously crop for a better view. As I was taking a photo of the two males at the bottom left of the photo, a group of female ring-necked ducks flew into the frame preparing to land. This wetland is a busy place.
Ring-necked ducks summer in Canada and the northern portions of a few states such as Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. They winter in the southern and western U.S. as well as Mexico, Central America, and islands in the Caribbean.
This was not the best photo of the day, but my personal mission was to ID and photograph ring-necked ducks or gadwall. Gadwall will be hopefully posted in the next couple days.
