I have never seen them foraging on land, though I've read that they do.
Thanks for sharing this!

October is wood duck month here--with as many as 12 wood ducks foraging for acorns in my yard near the pond at the beginning of the month and more recently over 24 diving for acorns along the shoreline. Also had a hooded merganser pair along the shore yesterday, and to my surprise two loons were in the middle of the pond calling--(think it may have been this summer's young loon and one adult)--the geese are still around--grackles have been sweeping through, and robins are on the apples and crabapples--red bellied woodpecker on the suet--cardinals around more often and an occasional purple finch-- crow numbers have gone from 5 to 7 regulars--with squirrels chasing them yesterday--today the crows actually managed to get onto the platform feeder and reach down for the suet--
