Pretty image. It doesn't appear as mischievous as other parrot type birds.

Many thanks Jack. Happy sails.

Beautiful shot of this pair, Mike.

Thank you very much, fotoi.

Those Shovelers are awesome Mike, nice capture.

I'm glad you liked them Paul. Thank you for the wonderful kudos.

Mike these are lovely. And the pair showing off their respective plumage highlights the beauty and diversity of the sexes in bird life.
Lovely composition.
As much as we all value your magnificent contribution, don't cut yourself short in taking the time to capture these beautiful birds an present them here. We need to see that aspect in your contributions too please. :-)

What a nice compliment, Richard. It is truly appreciated in a big way. Thank you.
I keep saying I'm going to spend less time on the computer and more time in the field with the camera. Somehow I'm not making that happen as much as I'd like. During this entire holiday season our family has so many different events going on, that it's a bit difficult to get away. Everything from dinner gatherings, my granddaughters ballet performances, my son and I hunting together, to much more. I'll definitely have more time come February.

Really lovely shot. Well done!

Thanks so much, Shortaction. Much appreciated.
