Male & Female Goldeneye Ducks

Lots of these goldeneye ducks around this spring and right now they are partnering up. Here are few very recent photos of both the male and female goldeneye in flight.

Bald Eagle Trying To Catch A Duck Dinner

I watched and photographed an immature bald eagle make a VERY lame attempt to catch a goldeneye duck on some open water on the bow river late this afternoon. These pictures are heavily cropped as the action was a long way off but I though I should post them anyway.

Goldeneye Ducks, Deer & Spring Beavers.

Only a few days ago it was -20c, the next day +10c and again today was well above freezing, spring is in the air! What a beautiful day to be out, and I was out this afternoon soaking up the sun and photographing some of the wildlife.

Female Goldeneye Duck

A very calm female goldeneye duck did not seem to be bothered by my presence at all and let me get in close for a photograph.
The evening light was just right!
