You won't believe this but I've got a shot juist like this! Well, no, not the same actually. Same bird though, just nowhere near as good. This is a great photo with pin-sharp detail, typical in all your submissions. I'll be adding this to my favourites. Thanks.

I have never seen it before Paul, what a weird looking duck this is, but fun.
Maybe he is just in need of an appointment with the hairdresser, who knows.. :-)

I like the picture a lot. And I think I will take the picture with me, when I buy color for my hair again. This is what I want. Funny duck.
