Here a Duck, There a Duck

Withing the past few days, I was pleasantly surprised to see a Wood Duck hen with 7 little ducklings, as they swam past me as I worked in a friend’s yard at the Lake of the Ozarks (Missouri). Here are some images I captured as the group filed by me:

About the same time, I also saw some Canada geese with their little goslings … I’ll feature that in another post.  I’m back home from a wonderful trip to Magee Marsh, located along Lake Erie in northern Ohio. I photographed migrating warblers there last week, and am now in the process of downloading some of the hundreds of images I captured! Those will also be shared soon!
