This sequence shows a pair of Bluebill ducks (Lesser Scaup) coming in low over water for a landing. Drake on the left, hen on the right. I had wanted to photograph a large flock of these birds coming in to decoys but never got the chance this spring. The bluebills stop on Lake St. Clair on their way north but do not stay long. I was fortunate to see this pair on Saturday but I'll have to wait until next year for a chance at a flock.
I had two dozen bluebill decoys on the water and these two came in nicely just before 9:00am. About 33 degrees F. and a 15 knot north wind.
