Pato maicero entre totoras (Anas georgica)

This pic is the first I upload from my home town.
Was taken last october in spring days, over very shallow waters in Monte lagoon, now the place is almost a grassland because the severe draught we suffer this summer.
Is a Yellow-billed Pintail, here known as pato maicero (litteraly means maizer duck). Is seen here swimming in strait water course ending in the lagoon, between reeds and other simialr plants.

I hope you like it
