Shot this male Redhead end of March in Lake Ontario. The way he's stretching his neck,
something must have gotten his undivided attention.

EOS 1Ds 600 mm f/4
1/320 sec f/6.3 +2/3, ISO 200.

Hope you like it and thanks for looking.

Dieter

Nice shot Dieter. These are difficult to approach closely. You need a bit more space in the front of the bird, IMHO, so it is swimming into the frame rather than out of.

I was East Humber on Friday, was hoping to bump into you. There was a Harlequin Hen in the small bay. Also at LaSalle Pk. on Saturday and the Redheads were so close, my 500mm was much too long!
