B-1343, a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, on approach to runway 23 at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario.
It was arriving as CHH7975 (Hainan Airlines Co., Ltd.) from Beijing, People's Republic of China.
The aircraft was wearing a special DreamWorks Kung Fu Panda livery.
Wearing a dark jacket and a crisp white shirt, black phoebes tend to perch low and make short fluttering sorties to catch flying insects. Dapper little birds, in my opinion.
This handsome duck is an American Wigeon. I thought his tones matched nicely with that of the reflections on the water. I'm fond of that green swoosh on the males' heads. Wigeons are dabbling ducks feeding mostly on plant matter. Though I've never seen it, apparently sometimes a Eurasian Wigeon or two will show up here in North American and mix with their American cousins. And visa versa - American Wigeons sometimes show up in Europe.

I've waited several years for one of these guys to show up somewhere. Word was out that a single drake was discovered at this park two hours away from my location. I took the chance and did the four hour round trip to capture this stunning drake! Cold and partially submerge reminded me that winter waterfowl photography was in full swing :) Click for enlarged view :)
The one thing about lockdown is that it makes you appreciate the things that are close to home. They might be a common species but drake Mallards are now looking rather dapper in their breeding plumage.
Wood drake.
Thank you for taking the time to view.

Male Starling, in all his finery, strutting his stuff in front of the fledglings, on a dull morning, in our garden, in Norfolk.
This Wood Duck just looked me straight in the eye and gave me his best " I'm a good looking duck" pose.
