Hint of green

I was glad to see the duck population increasing again at Constitution Gardens. Most of them had left when the lake was pretty much drained, followed by a huge amount of algae when it was refilled. Thanks to the Park Service, most of that seems to have been cleared out and the ducks are back.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Neat comp and I love the crisp focus on the eye. The green in the head feathers is a nice bonus.
