A few holes in the broken up ice in the channel have created some of the very few areas with open water for water fowl. Lake Michigan is frozen for as far as I can see, and it has driven some Long Tailed Ducks close to shore. I have never seen a Long Tailed Duck - evidently because they like to hang out way off shore where you can not see them. All taken with a 100-400mm w/ 1.4X at f/8. The first one is the mail and the second one is the female.
