My favorite bird

Encountered during a walk with the family in local park. Male Wood Duck paused just before him and his partner flew off together.

Nate, I think that's one of my favorite fowls. Pretty shots.

I have been close to wood ducks before but this was my closest encounter. I walked right up to a pair of Wood Ducks and a pair of Mallards. They paused for a moment and gave me the chance to capture some images and then in normal fashion they quickly flew off. I was with my wife and two sons and I noticed the male allowed the female to fly first and he quickly followed. It was a fun day with family.
