This fella, Wood Duck, is not a normal visitor to these parts. Snapped this one at work on one of our ponds. Hope you like and all comments are welcomed.

Brilliant colors and reflections. I like the effect the water has taken on. Sharp details throughout, Charles.

Nice and bright colors on the duck Charles. Very good capture with the reflection and the water movement.

Lucky! How many people have ponds at their work. Great shot Charles. That is one colorful duck. I like how the water has a whirlpool effect sucking your attention to the Wood Duck. Thanks for sharing and keep quacking! :)

I like how the swirling look of the waves complement the curving lines in the duck. Really very nice!

I'll bet seeing that wood duck was a welcome surprise since they aren't common to your area - the colors are simply amazing so much so that sometimes they don't look real - Excellent Capture Charles!!!:-):-):-)!!!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
