Perched on a fallen log (and living up to his name) is this colourful drake, one of several Wood Duck “fixtures” at Piper Spit. Burnaby Lake is home to the largest concentrations of Wood Ducks–hands down, the most colourful waterfowl you’ll find in Metro Vancouver, Canada, and one which exemplifies ROY G. BIV through his plumage and the background scenery. See more examples of ROY G. BIV here.

Oh, he is very handsome indeed! I do think it’s the best photo of a male Wood Duck I’ve ever seen. I love his expression ❤
