Probably anything looks good to him, what with the winter we've been having.

            previously photographed and reported on NatureNS, near the

          <div>    He was persistently pursuing a female Black Duck; on
            the water, on land, and even in the air. He exhibited some
            unusual tic-like neck movements, presumably a part of the
            mating ritual. Does he have any chance of success? Are there
            any records of Wood Duck/Black Duck hybrids?</div>
