08 march 2025, Yutz, Moselle, Lorraine, Grand Est, France. It's winter. On the surface of a body of water, a wide shot of a Tufted Duck. The duck is a male, with black plumage and only a partial white wing. Its orange eye stands out clearly against the black, purple-tinged head. Its beak is gray. As the bird is perfectly in profile, we can also see its long crest that runs down the back of its neck. The duck swims calmly on the water. It's the end of winter, and it often approaches the female, even though mating can occur very late in this species. Feather | Tranquil Scene | Environment | Nature | Animal Wildlife
