Hold on Woodie!

            This male Wood Duck clasped tightly to the trunk of a dead tree, on a very windy day at Lake St. Clair Metropark. All of the adjacent trees were also dead, but a nearby female Wood Duck was tucked into a tight space between the crossed limbs of a large fallen tree that leaned against another dead tree that was still upright. They seemingly were attempting to nest there.
