Redhead ducks are beautiful birds.

The Redhead features multiple colors across its body. Gray lower body and abdomen. A black chest. And of course the red head for which the Redhead duck is so named.

All the colors fit together beautifully. They are all in these deeper darker tones. Not brilliant and standing out so much. There is this subtle dignified beauty to the colors of the Redhead.

I was able to photogrpah this Redhead on a small local pond in New York,

This is a winter scene with just a touch of snow remaining in the background on this day.
