Note to self: the next time you decide to feed wild critters throw the food, bag and all, and then beat a hasty retreat out of there before the feeding frenzy begins. Well at least I went down shooting.

Enjoy and your comments welcomed.

Well at least they didn't think your camera was a big chunk of licorice to be eaten. This is a great looking shot of the the wigeons. I think you have about four of them in this picture!

You did manage to get a good shot and escape that feeding frenzy predicament!!! Wildlife can be quite aggressive at times and these guys were looking for those tasty morsels. Nice one Wendell!!!

I like how the other ducks create a frame around the main subject. Good one, Wendell.

I like the markings on these with the speckles and blueish bill. Glad there were no senseless feeding injuries!

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

I love this photo and how the duck is feeding but keeping a eye on you at the same time .You captured this duck from a stunning angle Wendell and love the circular effect of this shot and lovely colours too.

I'm pleased you've been feeding the Ducks during the winter Wendell (o: they must get so hungry at times. The very shallow focus is perfectly positioned while the other blurred birds make a natural frame, well done.
