Great work on the second one. First one, the duck is great, but the water could use being darker.

I really should start to attempt some biffing...

Very nice shots. I prefer the second one. I wonder if the first one wouldn't be better with a bit tighter crop?

Man, you'r the duck in flight master, Wayne. These are fantastic! I find it hard to get the wing flap timing, unless i "machine gun" the target and hope one is accurate. :D

Nice pair of shost Wayne. I wish that I had a Woodie inflight like this one although I may have cropped it as Dan suggested.

I prefer the Wood Duck species-wise, but the mallard takes the prize here for best shot. Nice habitat BG.
