Here’s a pair of shots of a male Wigeon. He was cruising the pond that is just south of Setauket Mill Pond. Maybe he was admiring his reflection before coming near the shore for some salad. I also managed to get a few more shots of a mated pair of Wigeons on this same pond. Hopefully, I will get around to posting those shots later this week. JK

Here are three pics of an uncharacteristically cooperative Cardinal I saw at Frank Melville Park in Setauket. Cardinals tend to shy away from me when I’m trying to photograph them. This guy was keeping his distance but he stayed out in the open instead of disappearing into a maze of branches.
He stayed on or near this perch for about a minute, striking different poses. This allowed me to get some decent shots before he flew off in search of some winter forage. Thank you for your time Mr. Cardinal. JK
