Meanwhile, here's a quick shag for you. (Or maybe a cormorant, I can never tell) #WaterfowlWednesday

I'm not much but i'm an honest duck.

Is #WaterfowlWednesday a thing? Could I make it a thing?

This mallard and several of her peers were voraciously chowing down on the duckweed that covered nearly the entire surface of the pond (that green background? That's all just duckweed bokeh!)

Ducklings are so darn cute! These six babies were grouped together standing on a log in the pond in spring with mom not far away, in Guelph Ontario Canada. Such fluffy sweeties with bright eyes and smiles. They make your heart happy.

These two very handsome drake Mallards were on an in flight collision course to get to the snowy concrete embankment on the Speed River in Guelph Ontario Canada on this lovely winter day. The iridescent bottle green white collar dabblers managed to veer away from each other just seconds before landing.

A lone Great Blue Heron strolls on the shore of the beach in the early morning at Manasota Key, Englewood Florida USA, while hunting for breakfast.

With it's long curved neck gently lowered, the graceful and elegant Mute Swan sips water from the pond at Puslinch Ontario Canada. The beautiful stark white feathers, orange bill and black face are quite dazzling.

The #GreatEgret is a dazzling sight dressed all in white and set against the colourful red and gold background as it flies past a fall forest. A tall, stately white wader of quiet waters it takes flight when disturbed.

This very handsome drake Mallard was waddling on the snowy ground near the river in Guelph Ontario Canada on a lovely winter day. The iridescent bottle green white collar dabbler was eating snow while looking for the corn that some children had thrown to feed the ducks and geese.

I've been delinquent about posting waterfowl on #waterfowlwednesday lately, so:

The cutest little Egyptian gosling. (Something's happened to its upper beak – a wound? Seems to be healing well, though.)

The sun was setting as the Mute Swan was heading back to the nest after a long, hard day chasing Canada Geese. Sunset cast an orange glow on the slightly rippled water as the Swan gently glided home.

The Common Loon appears on Canadian currency, including the one-dollar "loonie" coin and the previous series of $20 bills. It is the provincial bird of Ontario. Loons have long been considered by many North Americans as beautiful and special, symbolizing wilderness and solitude.

Brown Pelicans are a welcome staple around Florida beaches and waterways. I photographed this juvenile standing on the shore one morning while he was posing nicely for his picture. Added complimentary textures for an artistic presentation.

Black-and-white squares, slightly underexposed #waterfowlwednesday edition: An Egyptian goose in flight, a swan on its nest, a duck with its beak tucked in below its wing, and a Canada goose just kinda looking.

Another #waterfowlwednesday candidate: A female Eider duck I saw at the zoo.

(Very pleasing how their beaks form sort of a perfect continuation of their head shape.)

It's #WaterFowlWednesday, so here's a male (and seemingly molting?) mallard flapping its wings in the water.

This seems to be a part of their cleaning ritual. They usually dunk their body into the water, clean themselves with their beaks and, when they're done, shake off excess water like you see in the photo — that is, at least, what it looks like to me!

It's #waterfowlwednesday! Because there's now way too many shots of Egyptian geese in my "to post" folder (not to mention the ones I've yet to edit), here's two for the price of one: A chick having a swim, and some abstract-ish plumage.

@mjohanning nice Mallard 👍

here's a male sleeping while he stands on one leg 😂

I keep forgetting about #WaterFowlWednesday these days — so, once again, here's my photo but one day late.

A female mallard taking a nap on a patch of grass next to the nearby lake. Isn't she adorable?

Wait, is it #WaterfallWednesday, or #WaterfowlWednesday? Nevermind, I guess it doesn't matter.

A Common Pochard flapping its wings on Hofvijver in The Hague, Netherlands. A bit too late for #WaterFowlWednesday, unfortunately.
