It's nice to see that waterfowl is starting to arrive in Central, FL. Here we have a couple of Fulvous Ducks at a nature preserve in Central, FL.

I wish I had better light & was a little closer but sometimes you have to work with what you got. Shot from shore laying in the wet weeds to get this picture. After we left, just down the shore there was a 13' alligator!

Lovely interaction and great image. I'm wondering if maybe you could have dropped the SS slightly (maybe 1/1000?) in order to lower the ISO - the Light looks good to me here, though. Cheers

A really cool and interesting capture here Mike. I have seen this species twice now on my trips to Texas, but they have always been too far away to get anything decent of them.
