Awhile back I posted a couple pics. of the duck family at a neighborhood pond. This cutie is one of the four that are left, two adults and their two chicks, that are now growing up.

I thought I would convert this for for B&W challenge.

If you click here you can see my post of them from before.

Thanks for commenting, I do like hearing from you.

See it's curious for you Sandi. Perhaps it's admiring your camera or is searching for a piece of bread, lol.

Cute B&W image and an appropriate entry for the challenge.

I remember that other shot...quite a handsome family. This looks great as a black and white, Sandi. Excellent focus. Don't you just love the smile on its face?

I think this will be an excellent entry for the B/W challenge. You've got a good eye for these things, Tigs. Well done.

Emptiness is not nothingness. It is simply the opposite of full of it.

I like the slight softness of this cracker quacker Sandi. I think it appears to be listening for clicks and hoping you get its 'best side'.
Super cuteness - and another fine entry in the BWC - thank you so much :(

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
