2014 Canada 25-cent Ducks of Canada - Pintail Duck

A pair of pintails float serenely in the calm, mirror-like waters of their Canadian wetland habitat. The drake is in the foreground, his dark chocolate-brown head slightly turned to allow a full view of his grey-blue bill. His mate, a mottled brown hen, quietly wades alongside him in the background.

The coloured reverse image by Canadian artist Trevor Tennant features a pair of pintails floating serenely in the calm, mirror-like waters of their Canadian wetland habitat.
