I’m not sure if this Buck was eating the Duckweed or if it was drinking the water covered with Duckweed. I read that Deer will eat Duckweed. It is an important food source for aquatic waterfowl and fish

How I Got The Photo – Whitetail Buck And Duckweed
I photographed this Buck from my pickup while parked on the auto tour road at Miner’s Cove. This was at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma. I had my camera and lens resting on a bean bag draped over the open window of my pickup.
