Common Goldeneye

Male and female common goldeneye ducks at Lake Bartlett in Oswego, Illinois.  Adults have golden eyes!  Goldeneye summer in Canada, Alaska, and along the Great Lakes. Their winter home is mostly in the U.S.

Photo was taken at 8:25 am from the eastern shore of the lake, with the ducks closer to the western shore.  Sunrise was at 7:08 am, but with the sun so low in the sky this time of year I believe that golden hour is greatly extended.
