Title: Rouge Beare Wetlands
Post by: gary yankech on March 18, 2012, 08:48:28 PM

A nice sunny Sunday afternoon in the Rouge. Many people out taking photos. No one stopped to take photos of the American Black Ducks tucked away in the shallow corner of the snapping turtle pond at the trailhead of the Cedar trail. Everyone was after the Buffleheads, a few tourists did not know what they were but were fascinated by their colors.  There was also a small group of  scaups hanging around.

Buffleheads are awesome!  Nothing against them Black Ducks though.

Nice pair of males enjoying the day there.
