Pic of the Day


     Northern Shoveler – Viera Wetlands: Viera, Florida:  As I made my last round on the impoundment roads at the Viera Wetlands I found this female northern shoveler swimming in water that reflect the clear blue sky above.  The sun, only minutes from dropping below the horizon bathed in the bird with a yellow-orange, complementary light.  In addition to the color and clarity of the shoveler, I love the added interest of the abstract reed reflection in the rippled water behind the bird.
