Description
This photograph of a beautiful Long-tailed Duck was created in early April on a small lake in Northern Virginia. The duck, an uncommon visitor to this region, spent over a week here, repeatedly diving to the bottom looking for food. I feel very fortunate for the time I spent observing and photographing this amazing bird.

Todd, awesome image of the Long-tailed Duck - on my must see list!
Todd Henson replied:
Thank you, Jurgen. I hope you get to see one. It was a bit of a surprise for me seeing one outside it's typical range.
