Different Behaviour

I watched this little wood duck squire his mallard lady love for some time.  She seemed flattered by his attentions.

It was clear that she preferred his company even though mallard gentlemen were readily available.

Perhaps it was something in the water?  Or her vision was faulty.

“Green head – check; gray sides – check; brown chest – check; handsome too.  Yep he’ll do!”?

Quiet Morning

The Erie Canal in Pittsford has evolved over the years from a working canal to leisure.

A quiet morning early in summer finds preparations for a voyage underway, along with people relaxing.
