I went looking for birds on the river when the sun would be setting. I found them, just wish they had been closer to the road.

Ducks...

Nice find Sandy. It was great that you could get some nice late sun. I'm always a sucker for ducks. This duck family is nice. Like the mix of the greens and the gold.:-)

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

Thanks Ian. I'm not one to travel, but it was worth it. Of course travel for me was about 7 miles or so! I photographed a few wood ducks too the same evening, but the sun was blocked in that spot.

Thanks Terry! I really like ducks too. This is a river passing through a swampy marsh area, so perfect backdrop for photography.
