This Duck sneaked up on me so fast I barely had time to capture it, & then flew off overhead, & pooped on me. :o( You owe me an explanation Yankee bird !! . . . . . Well hi Phil did you receive my deposit alright bud. :o) my name's Carl, & I'm a resident Duck from New Orleans. You maybe interested to know I flew over to Merry Olde England just to interview Earl the Greylag Goose a well respected bird guide. Viewers will be interested to read he's feeling a lot better now but still off work sick suffering with nervous exhaustion !! He's alleged certain Gentlemen on Caedes made some wicked, & cruel comments about . . . I'm sorry I just can't say the words. :o( . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Carl just relax it's okay !! . . . . Gee I got kinda choked up then Phil, that hasn't happened to me for a very long time. Things are best left there but I just wanna say Froggy watch out !! we know where you live the "69th Pooper Squadron" is on emergency standby !! as is the "Plimuff Gulls 3rd Airborne Division" m8.

Thankyou Carl it's been most enlightening speaking with you, please take care pretty boy, & send Earl my sincere apologises I just hope he recovers properly soon.

Enjoy this North American Wood Duck viewers. :o)

This one is top notch stuff, Phil. I don't think even HDTV would be clearer than this shot. Fantastic.

This is a wonderful shot of this beautiful bird. The colours are fantastic and I like how you have caught it amongst those daisies for an extra effect! Well done!

Finally, someone else who speaks to ducks. It doesn't surprise me Phlossie that you have that talent. He must be in a work zone, I notice he wore his hard hat. Such a clear photo. Now tell me, How much wood would a wood duck duck if a wood duck would duck wood. Just wondered

Carl from New Orleans can stay in the U K . We don't want him back here. If he comes back he'll be a Stuffed Duck instead of a Wood Duck.
Oustanding Capture of Carl's Beauty and Detail .
Treat him right Phil , he's sort of Spoiled being from New Orleans.

Marvelous hairdo. I thought that style went out in the '50s. Maybe he has a bit part in "West Side Story". Super snapshot, Phil.

This is one of the best wildlife pictures I've seen on this site. It's fab Phil. Love the narrative and you know they say that it's lucky to have a bird poop on you and as today is Friday the 13th we all need good luck.
