Northern Pintail ♂ / Anas acuta / 尖尾鴨 (雄鳥)

            The male Northern Pintail is my favourite duck, mostly because of their impressive photogenicity.

This handsome individual appears to be smiling back at me as he takes off in search of new adventures.

(Feel free to compare this male Northern Pintail to an image of a female that I uploaded just a few images prior.)

Thank you for your interest, views, faves, comments and awards ! This image was captured in Hong Kong 香港. (Best viewed on a larger screen.)
