    Birds of Kentucky: Mallard



    2008-03-28 - Long Run Park, Jefferson County - Photo By Pen.
    Pen writes, "There are tons of migratory visitors passing through Kentucky this week. I've seen Horned Grebes, Ring-Necked Ducks, and Loons at Long Run Park. You'll have to imagine them, though, because I got shots that were good enough to confirm ID, but none that are a joy to look at. This handsome fellow followed me around the lake, though, and I think he takes quite a nice picture."
