Well in the 5 minutes of sunshine today i was able to grab these shots. I had to sneak up on the duck so it wouldnt fly off but the stubborn thing wouldnt turn its head to face me :(. As for the Lapwings, well they have decided it nest in the fornt yard so i can't evne leave the house without being swooped.

all taken with the sigma 70-300 hand held.
