Harley Fly By (Harlequin Duck)
Got the odd fly by from harlequin ducks yesterday at Deep Bay.
Horizontal Harley Stack (Harlequin Ducks)
Nice sunny day today. Too nice to stay at home. Went to Wheatcroft to have some more fun with the harleys. Already had a vertical stack so why not a horizontal one?
Stacked Harleys (Harlequin Ducks)
Hard to get good separation on ducks in flight as they always seem to bunch up. I was lucky with this image as they separated just as they turned toward the camera.
Harley Magnet (Harlequin Duck)
Not sure what it is lately but my camera has been a real harley magnet. Can't wait to get some of the other winter species in this close.

Not an easy target.
Deep Bay Harley (Harlequin Duck)
Went to Deep Bay today for a change of venue. Lots of cormorants as usual. Saw a few harlequin ducks as well. Just wish they had flown a bit closer.

In this image a female and two drakes fly closer to the camera on their way up river.

When the tide went out it exposed some rocks closer to our side of the river where the harlequins would swim to within 20 feet of the camera.
Harlequin Flock (Harlequin Ducks)
Lots of harlequin ducks on the river yesterday flying up and down. A real challenge to get a good shot at times but certainly worth the effort.
