I like pictures of boxes and ducks.

How about a picture of a duck in a box?

Now that I think about it - I wish I had a lens box big enough for a (full grown) duck to fit in.

Wanna borrow my EF 500 f/4 IS L box? You'll be able to fit two ducks in there. :lol:

Tom, you haven't seen the size our ducks around here have evolved to since you left these parts ages ago. I hear they're going to be replacing the turkeys as the fowl of choice for Thanksgiving dinners. I could post a picture of one here but won't out of respect for the OP. :lol:

Way to go. But watch out for cat hairs on the sensor.

I got mine a week ago, but haven't been able to lay my hands on an extra battery. Went to B&H yesterday, both they and Adorama were sold out on them. Heck, they both were out of the handstraps too.
