EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking photograph, taken by renowned nature photographer Ken Archer, we find ourselves in the picturesque Boundary Bay in British Columbia, Canada. The serene and tranquil winter scene is set against the backdrop of a vast expanse of calm, mirror-like water, dotted with the distinctive forms of wood duck drakes. Wood ducks (Aix sponsa) are a striking and beautiful species of waterfowl, easily recognizable by their vibrant plumage. The drakes display an iridescent green head and a glossy, chestnut-brown body, while the hens sport a more muted, brownish-gray appearance. In the stillness of the winter landscape, these ducks seem to blend seamlessly with their surroundings, creating a captivating tableau of nature's splendor. Boundary Bay, located in Delta, British Columbia, is a vital and essential wetland habitat for a variety of migratory birds. The Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary, which is situated in the bay, is a popular destination for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts alike. The sanctuary provides essential habitat and protection for numerous bird species, including the wood duck, during their seasonal migrations. As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are reminded of the importance of preserving and protecting these precious wetland ecosystems. They serve as vital refuges for countless species, providing essential resources and shelter during their most critical life stages. By cherishing and celebrating the beauty of these natural habitats, we can help ensure their continued survival and the preservation of the diverse and fascinating wildlife they support. This photograph, captured by Ken Archer and brought to us by Danita Delimont, is a testament to the power of nature to inspire and captivate us, and a reminder of the importance of protecting the delicate balance of our natural world.
