I focused on the female in the foreground and used a slow shutter speed of 1/10 sec to capture the chaos of the other Wood Ducks... :D

Nicely done Dave, the 3 outside ducks sitting still with the two inside woodies going nuts, A crop of the femal would also be nice. Thanks for sharing.

I can never get close to these birds, Unlike mallards, Wood ducks flee...

Nice one. Where did you find these guys?

I found a pond with 10 Wood Ducks last week. Didn't get a shot. You're right. They're very skiddish.

These were in one of the ponds at Dawson Creek Park in Hillsboro.
They won't let you get very close, unless they are chasing eachother around... :D:D:D
