Description
These Harlequin ducks were minding their own business when I happened upon them at the eastern end of Salt Spring Island in the Canadian Gulf Islands. They were feeding along a rocky shoreline and although surprised by my visit, they only slowly paddled away, managing to line up by gender! You might be tempted to think that I had my ducks in a row, but they did it themselves.
This photo was made late in the day on a March afternoon. The sun was low and to the viewer's right, making for nice contrast and color.
