Woody Out For A Stroll

[Bill Dix]

Perhaps the oddest Wood Duck image I've ever captured. I was photographing waterfowl on a public duck pond when I looked behind me and saw this guy strolling along the sidewalk. Did some pavement cleanup.

He's on a mission. Well done, Bill. Love the curved rear foot.

Great!! A very proud looking Duck. Lovely pose, colours and clarity. TFS

Nice to see one walking let alone on a sidewalk.

[Bill Dix]

Thank you all.

[Daniel Cadieux]

You gotta love that walking pose! Good low angle, I and I love the curved foot. Did you need to run NR to the darker areas?

[Bill Dix]

Thanks Daniel. I don't recall that I ran any NR on the bird, but I did think the smooth dark areas seemed a bit flat.
