    Congratulations David!

    Took this a month ago at a local small pond with about a dozed resident Wood Ducks living in it. They are a little weary of people but if you are slow and quiet you can get pretty close.
    Captured this as I was shooting them and a kid ran buy and spooked them. Most of the time I scorn the kids for scaring off the ducks but this time I was happy they did.

    1DMKIV---700mm---f5.6---ss1/2500---ISO800---HH@4:15pm---20% crop

    Thanks as always for looking and for your input. Appreciated

    David
