Male wood duck.
I love Wood Ducks – they are so colorful (and hard to get close to – great shot)>
Yes, wood ducks are skittish. At one time they had a serious population problem. One reason: women were using the feathers ion hats. Now they are an upswing thanks to conservation efforts and people building nesting boxes for them.
