Thanks Ginni. These are indeed beautiful ducks. Took this photo on the children's farm. We seem to have them in the wild as well, escaped from captivity, but I've never seen one in the wild.
Beautiful! We saw these at Safari Park last weekend, but this is a better shot than any I got. My guess is that they were among the many freeloaders that take advantage of the food given to the zoo's African and Asian waterfowl, but I've never seen them in the wild. I saw lots of the birds I see on the river, and will publish some pix eventually. I might even have a shot of a male ruddy duck with a blue bill -- I never see them in breeding plumage when I hike.
