Thank you Clifford. Unfortunately, they have moved on and we won't see the arrival of the 2022 crop of new Woodies.

Description
We have been blessed - last week the local duck pond welcomed a pair of returning Woodies - to add much colour and interest to the normal population of Blacks and Mallards. When one has not seen Wood Ducks for a while, their vivid plumage strikes fresh feelings of wonder and appreciation. This was taken last week on Thursday - today they have gone to find a hidden nesting site.
