If you've never seen a wood duck, you might think this picture was photoshopped but this is exactly what the male wood duck looks like. The colours are as vibrant as can be! The wood duck is a beautiful and unique medium-sized perching duck that can be found on woodland ponds and river swamps. This beauty has no close relatives, except for the Mandarin Duck of eastern Asia. Warren Hoeg didn't go that far for this photo; he snapped this beauty at Frog Pond in Sir Sanford Flemming Park, Halifax, N.S.
