Andrew Haydon Pk

This little duck and his two to three female companions have been hanging around Andrew Haydon Park & pond for over a week now. I suspect that they will continue their journey south soon. Lighting has been a problem for getting good shots as we haven't seen much sun in the past several weeks.
