Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

Wow, EJ, I did not know there are such things as tree ducks. Are they indigenous to your area or do they mirgrate like other ducks and geese?

I whistled too when I saw this image! Great pair of ducks "captured" and "framed" so well.

A good capture of the ducks E.J. I like the cypress tree frame. How did you know they were Mexican, were they whistling the mexican hat dance or something.

That's mighty big name for a couple of little ducks. They are handsome critters, though. Well done, EJ.

Surely they have a shorter name. Try saying that real fast three times. FPA has me on a leash so I can't look too long.

Great shot Frogz and they look like they are floating down the river on a log.

A very creative natural frame of moss and cypress. Liked how you captured this pair of rare ducks both staring in the same direction. Good job EJ

They're very cute EJ and I like the way you framed them through the trees. Colours are good too, especially the contrast with the neutral moss. Nice work.
