The local young Wood Ducks are just about adults.
As expected there are a few less than the last time I was here. At this point that could mean some have flown off rather than the ‘other’ reason.
One of these has been banded. I assume the state (maybe Lex the bird bander) DNR came by. Click here for Lex at work.
Nice series, they are so cute still!
I agree. It’s nice they are making the swamp here their home. The change in vegetation may chase other species away.
