A big thank you to my neighbor who called to tell me this beautiful little duck was in the water behind our home. I am not sure what type it is, but the colors were just beautiful. Earlier, my husband brought me a frog to photograph that he found while raking leaves. What is it with guys and frogs? But, it did make a great contrast to the beautiful little duck! (Update: This is a Mandarin Duck that is native to places like Russian and China. This one probably escaped someone's collection or a zoo. Hope we continue to see it!)
