Wood Ducks

In the Hacienda Court of the Hotel there is a koi pond that also is the home for four wood ducks. Their accomodations are of course called the Duck Suites. You can kind of make them out in the picture (I think I need a new camera).



Naturally this piqued my curiousity, here are some facts about wood ducks. They are also called carolina ducks and are a little smaller than mallards. They live year round in East Texas but also migrate to Northern states in the USA as well as the West Coast.
