Description
This female mallard goes about preening her plumage while elegantly floating on the surface of the pond. This shot was taken at Sheldon Marsh State Nature Preserve in northern Ohio. The preserve has 465 acres of protected wetland, a barrier beach, beautiful and unusual plant-life and is home to a wide variety of wildlife. I saw several ducks and herons right off of the trail and was able to get very close to the birds without disturbing them.
