Great pictures, I didn't realize how many different ducks there were until I started taking pictures of them this winter.

Sometimes you need a little help to get the best shot.

Very nice pics...especially love the Long Tailed Ducks being partially submerged in the water.  I'd love to see them dive and swim around.  

And yeah Andy, ducks are among the most numerous species.  I have seen 27 species of ducks to date and there are still a few out there that I might see in Ontario with some luck.  Species such as the Cinnamon Teal, Tufted Duck, and Gargany.  But they're all massive long-shots...but you never know, we have some crazy surprises every year it seems.  Last year it was the Brown Booby and Elegent Tern...we'll see what shows up this year.
