Canvasbacks

There were hundreds of canvasbacks on the river near LeClaire, Iowa last weekend.  I stopped to get a few pictures, and was excited to see them in such numbers.


They are so distinctive, with their whitish backs and bodies, and red heads.


Here's a picture of one with a Canada goose, for size comparison.
