I added no colour to this upload so I can only assume this colourful duck is in his mating colours. You can see another shot of this duck that was taken in September, it makes for a good comparison.

Enjoy. (o:

Great shot of this lovely one. Love the colors and the reflection off the water. He/she will turn some heads.

I would nominate this for the AC if I had any nominations left Phlossie.
Clear and beautiful.
I would say he is going to a black tie affair tonight.

Breath taking image and really like the way he's looking right at you. Fabulous detail, reflection and textures the water droplets on his head have created. He's a very handsome fellow

I accidently removed some friends images this morning before viewing them, I thought I was removing the comments, so If I missed commenting on one of yours It was by mistake, so sorry. tigs
