Description
This is a male Long-tailed Duck from the zoo. These ducks breed in the Arctic and winters along both coasts of North America. They are distinctive among ducks in plumage, molt sequences, foraging behavior, and vocalizations.
He just seemed to look so sad to me.
Thanks for stopping by and any comments.

Awww I hope he's not sad and alone ... Excellent capture as always :)
The poor little guy does look sad. He sure has an interesting color pattern in his feathers, on his beak, and even his eye seems like it is an odd color. He should be happy knowing you took such a good picture of him.
He does look sad.. Cool color enhancement and a great capture, Dennis.
A Beautiful capture , o yes he looks sad , poor creature , Ana
Awe, he does look really sad!
What a fantastic shot. Amazing perspective, looks superb!
He's lovely! Some nice detail to the shot and I like especially how you got down to this level to take the shot, I'm taking note and learning things from you guys. Excellent.
Awesome capture Dennis, love the low POV it adds to the overall appeal of this capture
He does look pretty miserable! a great shot.
Awww he does look sad. Perhaps having his lovely photo here will cheer him up !
Its hard to say; I was recently at the zoo, too, and it seemed many of the animals I saw there weren't all that happy. This is a nice photo though; I love the pov here; and you can see under the water at his feet :)
What a great POV, Dennis! I've never been able to get this low. Must be through glass, considering the haze. Beautiful duck and lovely shot!
Excellent capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great capture and yes, he does look a bit sad. :((
It's that little eyebrow wrinkle and the downturned bright color on the bill. Sweet portrait!
marvelous point of view.
How did you pull that one off Dennis the above and under water shot is unique!
I agree, the shape and color of the bill adds to the sad look.
Old woman! Man. Man. Sorry. I'm 37 What? I'm 37, I'm not old. Well I can't just call you Man! You COULD say ... What was this little guy's name, again? :)
A great close-up Dennis. He looks as if he is blind, Sig...
He is sad. His mate ended up in an Easter basket.
Probably he's not doing what he imagined he'd do with his life, great catch, especially the mood!!!!!
Indeed a sad expression on the face of this Duck, nevertheless its a beauty taken from a "funny" point of view! You turned this little sad duck into a beautiful photo, Excellently done!! Have a nice evening Henk
Well, trust me to see no sadness here ;-) He looks more lost or something.
I was wondering the same thing. Was he in a tank or you had waterproof housing on your camera???? Great shot for sure. I hope you made him smile a little. Happy Easter. Aloha :-)
Wonderful Work!!!!
Oh my goodness he does look sad! Makes you want to grab him up and just hug and pet him! Maybe he's eyeballing a potential lovely Mrs Ducky LOL ... Maybe his family is waiting on him and he is stallin cause he wants to remain free for awhile LOL .......... Brilliant Capture ..I love him! I"m gonna call him Henry!
Awwww....look at that little face. Perhaps he was just very tired. Good shot.
