I spent about 20 minutes laying in the melting snow and rain/sleet mix to get some shots of one of my favorite subjects. The Wood Duck. After a few minutes they were pretty comfortable with me and I was able to get close and get around 100 shots, and about 80 keepers. It was a great few minutes! Thanks for looking, Cole

Great color and detail! We haven't had much of a winter here in upstate NY, but enough ice to have pushed them south. I keep watching for their return, one of my favorites also! John
