Since I started my new hobby of amateur photography, I’m always exploring my environment to find unusual and beautiful things to capture in a photograph. I am always amazed at what I find. This assignment is difficult because I have so many photos I want to share. This photo I took at the VA Hospital in Loma Linda, CA. As I was leaving, I explored the many ponds around the facility and saw these beautiful wild fowl. A Wood Duck and an American Coot. Both beautiful in their own way.
