American Wigeon Fly By

Commonwealth Lake in Beaverton is loaded with waterfowl right now. If the soupy fog we've been having clears and the sun breaks through in the afternoon, it's a terrific place to photograph birds. I was lucky enough to catch this female American wigeon as she flew right in front of me along this narrow little lake. It wasn't hard to fill two memory cards on this afternoon in just two hours!
