This is oneof the most colorfull little ducks that hangs around the River Walk. His color makes him stand out among other ducks and is about half the size of the other ducks swiming.
Yes, Wood ducks are among the prettiest birds around. They almost disappeared because of over hunting for their meat and their colorful plumage for ladies hats. Thankfully they've made a big comeback and ladies don't wear hats anymore.
I hope you enjoy the pictures I have posted here. Photography has become a great love to me. I started taking pictures three years ago when my husband brought me my first digital camera. We take pictures together and have a wonderfull time takeing and sharing the photos of people, places, and things we find beauty in.
I need to give my brother Tom Martinez the credit for enspiring me to take the best photographs I can. You can enjoy his photography by visiting his blog at http://tomjmartinez.blogspot.com
