A Aflac hopeful! Lol! One of the ducks that hang out down the road from my house. The pond is thawed so their staying there. I stopped to give the duck lady Tammy a supply of food, and they were already up at the house. So took the time out for some shots.

Thanks for your comments, I do appreicate it.

Used the canon 450D and canon ef 70-300mm IS USM lens on a sunny day. =^..^= sandi ♪

A excellent closeup of the Aflac Duck Sandi. You started out feeding all the birds in your neighborhood now your feeding the ducks also. Time to consider a second job to buy more seed. Great post

Naw, he is probable too good looking for the Aflac commercial. With those black beady eyes and strong lower beak, I see him more in the lead for a Duck Tracy or Bob and Carol, Duck and Alice sequel. lol. BTW, excellent close-up Sandi.

That's pretty funny, Sandi. An Aflac wannabe. Just send in that picture with a well written resume, and I'm sure it will get the job. Very nice post.

Nice bokeh on this and the beak has fabulous detail. The dof's a bit too shallow I think as the rest of the duck isn't quite there, but the smooth white and lovely textures make up for it.
