Another from the Florida files......this was at Green Cay.....as the sun was gone behind some clouds later in the afternoon...so pretty dark overcast. I moved back further on the boardwalk to try and get a better lens angle...and I was all the way down on the top rail. he just finished preening the feathers and surprise!!!....no other teals in the frame.
Canon Mark 3 with the Sigma 300-800mm at 466mm for 1/1600 sec. at f5.6 and ISO 1200. Cropped slightly off bottom and front.
As always comments welcomed and appreciated.

Great wing flap and the soft light helps. I wish for a bit more head turn and might sharpen the bird more.

Very nice Roman I really like the position of the wings in this stretch and the exposure looks great. Well Done!
