Female Common Goldeneye

On a small beaver pond in the Kenai Peninsula I spent 2 afternoons trying to capture a good shot of this interesting bird. With little luck, and a lot of patience, I was able to get a few decent images. The duck is a female Common Goldeneye, Chugach National Forest, Alaska. (Bucephala clangula).
