Rare visitor

This is another first for me. While scanning the marsh from the viewing stand this afternoon, I spotted two male Redhead ducks way out on the water, continually diving for food. These ducks are natives of the prairie provinces, and are rare for our area. Their primary wintering grounds are off the Gulf coast in the U.S., but apparently some winter off the Atlantic coast, which may account for their presence here.

This isn't a very clear shot since the duck was far out on the water, but I think its features are evident.
