Wonderful! I love seeing ducks that are different from my usual ones around here! The Lesser Scaup is just gorgeous with that wonderful bright eye, and what beautiful water -- also love the water and the pose of the female Ring-necked. Such a beautiful set -- thanks for sharing them with us.

Thanks for sharing these

These pics are very nice, I agree with everyone else the "texture" of the water adds an appealing element to all of these shots. I have to say that the second one is my favorite. Thank you for sharing.

The Buffalo is a beautiful duck. First time I've ever seen one like that.
