I spent the morning in a marshy area not far from home in hopes of finding the somewhat elusive wood duck.
It was a steady drizzle all morning, but I did manage to capture a couple images.
Upon arriving back to my car, I noticed I had left my lights on.
Talk about a mood killer!
I called triple A and had them give my car a jump.
In hindsight, I think the April fool is me.

It may have been a soggy day, but I think the wood duck was worth it. I really like the first shot
