April 8th - In the AM - Raindrops are falling on our heads! Tripod was used because it was so dark...shot through the window again. Even with the tripod, one photo still suffered from motion blur and shake, so I played. :) In the PM - The Mallards came back, as well as the Wood Ducks. Both pairs were here last night for a couple of hours before dark.
April 7th - The Mallard pair and the Wood Duck pair showed up at the same time! First the Mallards...while I was taking a picture of them, the Wood Ducks. There seemed to be quite a bit territorial disputing going on; both the drakes and hens of each pair were chasing each other. The Wood Ducks left, we had a thunderstorm, the Wood Ducks came back.
April 6th - The pair of Mallards are becoming regular visitors now, I was even able to take some pictures outside.
