I took a stroll along the river and found a few nice birds, including this female Common Merganser.
Thanks for looking.

Classic pose and I like habitat inclusion. Nice light, detail and the drips add to the image.

I love this one Karl, the detail, colour and light are gorgeous. The image as a whole has a beautiful painterly quality.
