Terrific drake wigeon shot, fotoi! The colors and the birds pose are both very nice.

Super nice, SYS! The color is really great in this shot.

It's working out quite well, Phil. The only thing that I don't like is, having to always have my 1.4 TC on it. With the 100-500 Canon zoom, I'm shooting with an aperture of f/10 most of the time. At the pond I go to much of the time, I just cannot get that close to my targets.

Very nice portrait shot of the hen mallard, Melissa! A lot of nice color also.

This is a very nice capture, Jose!

Thank you Mike!

I had an extremely rare sighting today.

This fella is native to India and typically spends time in Europe & South Africa, but this one was in Dallas TX. today. I think he likes TX Mosquito's! :-)
