This dandy looking Duck is actually quite small but he couldn't escape my 420mm Leica lens.

What a beauty, Phil! I love the variety of colors in her feathers and that gorgeous blue beak. You did her justice and she looks like she is posing there just for you. She has a sense of your interest and good will towards her species I think.

That is a great shot and it must be a great lens. What a colorful duck. I think Dolly Parton wrote a song about a "Duck of Many Colors." Oops, it was a coat, but it could have been a duck. Where's the Duke?

Nice bird that one Phil, beautiful plumage (couldn't resist:) Seriously though, great clarity on that zoom and wonderful colours too.
