Great shot of the Mallard, you are obviously highly skilled in bird stalking to get so close to such a magnificent specimen. :lol: ;)

[Wayne Wood]

I had no idea you were so quiet on your feet well done composition is superb your best work to date lmao

[PetKal]

:) :)
Thanx gents, did not go out today, felt a bit indisposed, so I went stalkin' some wildlife in our family room, silly old boy that I am.

As my much better half often says referrring to me, unlike good wines, some things do not inprove with age !;)

Nice shot of a Quakker!

[Gary Fairhead]

I also thought it was a Mallard at first but on closer examination it is obviously a Wood Duck. Congratulations!

[Mitcon]

lmao, I can't say much else other than well done Petkal as I'm laughing too hard and I choked on my drink at your comment Gary lol. Hope this keyboard doesn't mind coffee.

[Wazza]

Hehe, rather amusing.

Good to see you didn't get any blurry shots in those rough low light conditions.

You must have used a polarizer for the mallard shot as I see no reflection in that wacky coloured water;)

[PetKal]

Gents, thanx for looking.....

Yeah, "rough shooting conditiond" indeed, at least the "wood duck" kept steady long enough....that is, until I became dizzy from kneeling on the floor for too long.:D

Used a"polarizer" to cut out water surface reflection......:D :D
