 Canon 1DMkII, 500 f/4 IS, 1/400 @ f/11, ISO 200, manual exposure Chris Kayler and I were photographing these guys at Bombay this past weekend and we couldn't believe how close they got to us. When we first went down to the area where they hang out to get set up in our blinds, they swam away a little but then came right back. It was killing us because we had to wait about 30 minutes for the sun to come up and here they were swimming around right in front of us. As the morning went on they got even more trusting of us and were so close that Chris was actually taking macro shots of them. And he wasn't even in his blind anymore! I guess someone forgot to tell them that they're the ducks that take off as soon as you stop your car to photograph them! Unfortunately the males are not quite in full breeding plumage yet but should be soon. Comments appreciated! Kim Steininger
