Here where I live, in the spring and summer they perch up in the trees regularly. . Sometimes they even perch on the overhead wires, and once I saw a pair atop a utility pole!
They pretty much perch just about anywhere, it seems. . No other species of duck does that in my area.

By the way, there's been something I have been wondering about this thread for quite some time, and I figure now might be a good time to ask:
I see lots and lots of bird photos posted here that aren't really portraits, even though the title of the thread is:
"Post your Bird Portraits"
So I am wondering, is it really okay to post bird photos that are behavioral, and not portraiture? . I want to make sure that if I post to this thread, I am strictly adhering to the OP's parameters. . I would hate to start a thread with strict parameters, and then have people post things that do not fit what I asked for. . The OP probably feels the same way, and I do not want to post anything that falls outside of his/her vision for the thread.
