Just a Wigeon

Trying out my new 400/5.6 lens on the duck population. This American Wigeon decided to help me out by posing for me.

Beautifully marked duck, looks to be a good lens. Its quite a while since ive seen one in the UK.

Beautiful close up shot Bill. They never come that close up here.

Very nice close-up shot Bill! You'll love the new lens and don't forget to add it to your gear list.

Congrats on the new lens -- great shot to start it out with.

Thanks, Brian. I think that this lens is a keeper.

Thanks, JG. It is nice to live next to a lake with plenty of waterfowl within a short walk.
