Wood duck, male

This male is now in non-breeding or eclipse plumage, during which time males tend to hide away. There were two a few days ago in the Fletcher Wildlife Garden's pond, but I saw only one today.

He is about to have a few bad hair days and would prefer to stay home. I understand completely. An awesome shot!! V
