Waterfowl

The last while has been good for spotting waterfowl.Spring has so many birds appearing all at once that it can be hard to keep up.

I like to visit the Kaleida Marshes frequently to see which new birds have shown up.

These pictures have been cropped,as the birds were too far away to really get great pictures.

This first duck is a Ring-necked Duck.

In the second picture are a pair of Canvasback ducks.

Picture number three is an American Coot.I have tried so many times to get good pictures of this bird,but usually all I get is it's tail end as he disappears in the water.Well,this time I got a fairly good shot.

It is so much easier to get pictures like this.The reeds stay put and all I have to do is get a good focus on them.I like how the water makes wavy reflections.

Finally a  pair of Northern Shovelers in flight.I like this picture,not just because of the ducks,but the clouds paint a soft backdrop.

Thank you Lord for another amazing day full of so many blessings.
