Wonderful capture, Jen. They do blend right in with the sand and rocks.

Fantastic shot - so sharp, with beautiful rendition of the colours. A lovely warm photo for my cold wintry day. They do camouflage so well!

Amazing...you can tell they're all from the same family, perhaps even quadruplets !!!!
It's a good darned thing that your DOF was as close as it was and that the background blurred, or I think we'd be playing "Where's Waldo" on this one .. :)

Wow ... an amazing shot Jen & yes they definitely are well camoflaged amongst those rocks. Well done.

Neato pic. The eyes are indeed cool. I liked the red foot, nicely in the center of the pic, helping me see the dove! And technically, the color is echoed in the blurred something in the upper left and in a couple muted tones in some of the rocks.

Camo for sure. Was it difficult to spot them? Very nice post.

Yesterday's history. Tomorrow's a mystery. Today's a gift. That's why it's called the present.
Very nice job. Nice looking ducks.

Please know that I enjoy your work even though I don't always get to comment. I try to look at (and enjoy) all your new posts and always appreciate the time you take to stop in at my gallery as well. Have a happy day ;) Anita
Super photo. The colors of the birds are very like their surroundings which I am sure helps them when hawks and other predators are around. Your capture is so nice and sharp against the blurred background that we can see them quite well, however.

They do blend well, don't they? And they have such nice eyes as you said. It's amazing the variety of creatures God made for us to enjoy! Nice shot, Jen!

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

A wonderful shot and a wonderful titile. Both works great and it makes a stunning photo.

A stunning picture - the birds are as sharp as a pin and I love their eyes - all Mona Lisa's following the viewer.
Great shot

The question is not what you look at, but what you see ~ Marcel Proust
What lovely little "characters" look at the looks on their faces...soooooooo cute!! I absolutely adore how they blend in with the stones...the colours are so soft...and to know no other animal will "get them" is so good too.It makes me wish I could do a pencil sketch of them..something I just can't seem to do...but maybe I'll try... I really am enjoying looking at this...I cant seem to stop..hehe..thank you so very very much..verena

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
Beautiful birds that blend so well in there surroundings. That, I believe, is a safety feature that is incorperated into wildlife. It would be harder for a predator to spot them. I like the earthy colors Jen and the birds look cute.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.
~found in voting booth and had to comment~
Outstanding imagery!! Terrific tonalities and tantalizing textures give the viewer much to take in!! Marvelific markings on these beauties and perfect with the backdrop to show how well they camouflage within an enviroment!!

Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.
