Description

Hi, while out for a very short time yesterday, I found this pair of Ring Necked Ducks down on the river in an open stretch of water. They were quite a way's off in the distance,and when I tried to get closer, well they just flew away. I got like 4 pics of them, and this shot really shows that Neck ring for which they are named... it's that ring of iridescent purple at the base of the Males neck.This a Male and the  Female . Enjoy!

Nice capture! I don't believe these use the Mississippi flyway, at least I don't recall ever seeing any.
