Mallards fly so fast, as I walked up to the lake they all flew off, but I was able to get one decent shot.

Gregg, your so right they are quick and this is an excellent capture of them in flight. One we don't see much of on Caedes, so crisp and clear birdman. Tigs♥ =^..^=

A good aerial shot Gregg you can see the coloured plumage of the hen so much more clearly in flight.

*jealous* They are way too fast for me, this is great. Maybe someday I will get the settings right. =)

This is a masterpiece, Gregg.
The composition, the blending although distinct colours, the pose of the lovely birds plus your amazing talent for "shooting" them fast moving creatures !!!!
10/10 in VB last night.

A good action capture of the ducks in flight. Almost looks like a watercolour with the smoothness of the details on the male duck. Great job.
