I titled this Shy One because this mallard was walking away from me...leery of my presence. His better half was in bushes. This was taken at a Nature Preserve outside of the city. I go there quite often with my dog. I used Photoshop Elements to enhance and crop this photo. Hope you enjoy...

Well, I kept seeing that title but the photo took a long time to appear so I wondering what the "shy One' would be. Good capture of the duck and I do believe he is keeping a wary eyeball on you.

This is a great capture of a beautiful bird. It's a good thing he's shy. Other people want to approach him with... other intentions. ;)

This beauty caught my eye and here I am to praise him :) Very sharp with good detail-his feathers look like soft velvet.Great irridescence colored head- he's very leery too-but they always must be alert. I see an orange leg peeking out of the grass.Terrific grasses in the background. All round wonderful image Gerry. Give yourself a pat :))
