Seems like a sorta strange place for a duck to go sit, but I like it. Much more interesting than a duck just sitting upon the water.

One of the better duck shots I've seen. Getting low in the grass was just the thing. If you got cold and wet, the shot was worth it.

Little quack'r in the pond. I find that the side foliage here seems to be sharper focus then the duck. Also the near center composition leaves me wanting something more. I would have liked a bit more separation as well as depth with the feller.

Outtake from the "portrait of a wild bird" challenge? Good looking shot with great looking lighting.
