A Wood Duck couple was flying around, landing in trees, checking out tree cavities
at a place we spent the morning hours.
Thanks for looking.

Love the shot Karl. Water drops on the belly, great detail exposed.

Very nice and interesting pose Karl.
Beautiful overall, bright but well controlled exposure.

Click on this to bring in the dark surround and it really sings! Love the pose you captured here Karl, fine detail and colours with the water droplets on the plumage. A beauty!

The image of the duck is very clear and sharp. I am not a fan of mainly white backgrounds

A very unique wood duck frame, Don't think I've ever seen one quite like it. I really like the wood in the background and the over the shoulder pose.
Looks like a Japanese painting. Nice one
