at least I think it is. She flew up to this branch after a squabble with another female. I thought it was a nice pose. Taken in the Wetlands with the 20D and the 400 5.6. Any comments welcome.

I have yet to capture a wood duck in a tree. Nice shot!

To me the focus looks like it was on the perch as it looks a little sharper than the bird. Still a nice shot, Karen. I like all the lichen on the tree.

I think you're right...I had about 10 shots and of course picked the wrong one to post. <sigh> So this is a picture of a tree with a duck blocking the view???:lol: Here is another in the same shooting.
