I captured this image earlier this month at Viera Wetlands. I would have preferred to have a lower angle but the reeds at the edge of the water were pretty tall.
This is my first encounter with this species and I believe it is a lesser scaup. Please correct me if I have misidentified this duck.
Canon 1D MIII, 500mm with 1.4x, Gitzo tripod and Wimberley head
ISO 400, 1/1000, f/5.6, +1 exp comp, AV mode
curves and levels applied in CS3
Slightly cropped from bottom.
Comments and suggestions are welcomed.
