Took a walk around the grounds yesterday with the sun setting. Spotted a mallard hen with six ducklings, unfortunately in the shadow of a tree. The strong light was irregular, part coming through and part blocked by the tree. Still, they were too cute to resist.

What cute neighbors you have Stan. Nicely done. I've been away from photography for awhile having just returned from hernia surgery. Hope it wasn't a result of toting that Sigma lens around. lol

Thanks, Don. Sorry to hear about your surgery, but trust you are recovering nicely. I haven't done much recently myself.
