Cool pose, sharpness, light and BG. Maybe a bit tight in the frame?
You have a Mark IV or is this a Freudian slip? :)
Killer pose and BKGR. And sharp. My only wish is that the bird were flying slightly towards you rather than slightly away.
What's the consensus on next year's Operation Open Windows? I'd love to see you put in at least one more year... I would commit to being there with you. And working <smile> Something like September 12th...
Just a Mark IV minus I.

Artie, I believe we'll be there again next year. We are going to meet with Shawn next week, there are few details we would like to clean up (resolve) first. Lots of snow at the Bosque this week and cold.

I agree a couple of degrees toward you would have been nice but still superb.
Decks, blinds, nuclear reactors, you name it. We'll keep you up to date Artie.

Where is "Wigeon pond, Albuquerque"?
Great shot, lovely pose and colors. congrats
On a second look I see that the bird is actually angling toward you but the head and neck are turned away. Bad luck....
Just a fantastic BIF image. Very sharp and nice wing blur.
would love a bit mor space in front, loved the light on the bird, great details and the perfect wing blur...
