Mandarin Duck Tales from the Vienna Woods
Waiting for Sunrise in the Morning Fog


Mandarin Ducks waiting for Sunrise
The sun rose hiding
in a shroud of thick Danubian fog

  6. I do wish these ducks were in northeast Ohio! We have lots of mallards and some wood ducks but nothing as colorful as these!
