Wigeons and Redheads at South Padre Island

Here is a collections of photos from our March 6th trip to South Padre Island. These ducks are becoming a favorite of mine. Both The American Wigeon and Redheads are ducks that breed and migrate to Minnesota. Wigeons, by the maps breed 40 miles north of the Iowa/MN border.

                                                                    

 The males must think

this is how to pick up

chicks (or hens).   

I enjoy watching

them posture.
