Grooming

, ,

Grooming is very important to ducks. It keeps everything in line and most importantly it ensures they stay buoyant and waterproof. Thus keeping warm. Here a Scaup does just that. Not sure if it's a Greater or Lesser Scaup. But a Scaup it is.

There's a little fancy and some macro, HERE and HERE. Have a look!
It's definitely a November morning around here. Raining, foggy and dark. But it's mild!
Have a great day, despite the weather!

Scaup aren't ever easy to tell apart! Like the barred markings, anyway smile

Yes, they are quite pretty. There's usually lots around, but I've only seen two or three so far!
