Hi,

These guys popped out of the grass yesterday and swam around for a while.
I finally got some good light and they were cooperative since I was shooting handheld.. Hope you enjoy.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

    Hi.. They migrate back and forth like most ducks I would guess, as I mentioned, we don't get many so I'm sure they are just passing through.
    Thanks for viewing.
