Wood Ducks on Pond, Spring is Here
Monday, March 29th, 2004
Each year a pair of ducks come to our small pond to mate. They arrived this morning although we did not see them land. And, this year they are a different pair, a pair of wood ducks which are a bit more unusual than mallards. They spend part of each day on our pond, part down the road on Lake Waramaug and undoubtedly on other small ponds in this area.
I tried to get a shot of both male and female and in the process caught our red-bellied woodpecker and a smaller woodpecker on the suet feeder. The female is behind the suet.
