Nice wood duck shot, fotoi. I recognize this female in a number of your previous posts. She has a little bit of a hairdo problem.

Both these shots are quite nice, Richard! I especially like the pair of Australian wood ducks. It's amazing how different in appearance they are from our wood ducks on this side of the pond.

Thanks Mike
The Wood ducks are attractive birds and yes, I learnt early on quite different to yours.
These are very wild birds and keep their distance unfortunately. Rather large crops is the the best I can get off my dam.
The wrens haven't got the message to them that I only want to look :-P
