Northern Pintails
My knowledge of ducks isn't up to identifying this pair with any certainty (they look more Scaup than Tufted to my untrained eye), but I just loved the composition. Everything appears so delicate: the long, thin grass, the gossamer reflections in the water and the ducks themselves.
