Another shot from the duck pond. This fellow and his mate came over to investigate me thinking I was perhaps there with free food. He obligingly swam close to where I stood and posed for a few snaps before swimming off; all the while giving me a dirty look for not bringing any treats. Hope you enjoy and your comments welcomed.

Nice photo little bright but still good like the repeals in front of the duck and the clear water is a nice touch.

I can't get them to pose like that, even when I feed them.
Great shot, Wendell.

Wendell - I don't blame him for giving you the dirty eyeball for not feeding him. I like the concentric ripples from the drop of water that fell off his bill - it adds to the photo. Thad

Yep, you can see his eye looking up at you Wendell, he's wondering what you are doing there and where's the food. Great clear water & like the perfectly round ripples in fornt of him.

Hello, Wendell....

Absolutely wonderful photograph. Great colors, excellent cropping and a perfect subject. Once again you have the knack for being in the right place at the right time. I agree with the comments prior to mine. I can never get any sort of wildlife to sit still. Even the local blue bellied lizards are afraid of my camera.

I love his looks, well captured. The ripple below and the clarity on the bird, the clear water, water droplets on the birds wings every thing is in clear focus. Super shot.

you need to stop putting ceramic painted ducks in the pond, none of the ducks think you're funny. ok im done with going through your pics, you make it easy to comment on them (narratives, titles and sometimes your great work)
