Redhead Pochards at Tierra Verde

I had fun at the Tierra Verde pond. I would take photos and go back to the condo and download to see what I captured.
The Redhead Pochards and the Common Pochards are similiar,
but the Redhead is the one in Florida of the two.
If I am wrong please feel free to correct me. Ducks are new and I have several different ones to post, so please help me if I am wrong on any of them.
Not sure what is going on with the back one of the 3 grouped together.

I do love those red head ducks! I wonder if those ducks that were grouped together were having a "social moment." I know Loons do that - but only at the end of the summer. Great photos Leedra - can't believe all the ducks that were there!!

Look at all those ducks Leedra. I have yet to see a red head...although I was one once! :-(

I too love the red head ducks! I really like the photos you got of one with its wings out!

You are quite the "duck hunter" Leedra :)

I'm not familiar with these ducks but you certainly found a lot of them.

These are such lovely ducks. I love the red heads. In the last picture where the 3 are grouped together I believe he is cleaning himself. His features are ruffled. Great shot.

You got some very good pictures of the red-headed duck.
