This young wood duck will be heading south soon but he’ll need a bit more time to develop adult plumage. When he returns next spring he’ll be looking dapper and ready to find a mate.

Lovely capture, Belinda. Great catch of his eye and that wavy water reflection makes a nice background. He looks like he’s feeling pretty snazzy now 😎
