A couple of ducks

Ringnecks,
They are always on the far side of the pond & fly as soon as we see each other. Another 30 yards or so would have helped here.
And some elk were watching me.













This one downloads pretty well.

Very nice Victor and think that the ducks are ringnecks as we used to see quite a few around here!

Thanks for the correction.
You are correct of course! Ringnecks. I just trusted my wife when she told me. I was too lazy to look them up and I for sure don't know my birds.
They are rather similar, but have definite differences.
Any way to update the post?

Beautiful shots in spite of the distance, Victor, and you're so right about the download of the elk!

I think you can only correct for something like the first half hour or something like that, Victor, but don't think it really matters as they are often confused and I have been guilty of it myself! Take care!

Thanks Donna, If you would change it that would be nice. My wife is rarely wrong. It's usually me.
