Hi there Irene, thanks for your kind words - they're most appreciated.
The park, believe it or not, does actually have a lot of things to be seen - especially at this time of year.
With regards to the hoodies, the shots I took below were in the last 1/2 hour of daylight with the sun right in front of me which allowed for some interesting light tones. It was interesting, as well, to see the hoody drakes starting performing mating rituals which are normally left for the spring time (my last photo).
