Those Wonderful Wood Ducks

The Wood Ducks are visiting Delta Ponds now. I just love them, with their bright colors and interesting appearance!

Information from Wikipedia about the Wood Duck:
"The wood duck or Carolina duck is a species of perching duck found in North America. It is one of the most colorful North American waterfowl. The wood duck is a medium-sized perching duck. A typical adult is from 47 to 54 cm in length with a wingspan of between 66 to 73 cm. This is about three-quarters of the length of an adult mallard. It shares its genus with the Asian Mandarin duck."

Beautiful birds, they should share their colour secrets to our Wood Ducks here in Oz.
