    I captured this eider earlier on this dull evening. Its good to see them finally come from the molt period and prepare for the winter ahead. Thanks for having a look

    Nice timing on the pose, nice details on the duck - one I've yet to get. I see you pulled the trigger on a 500mm f4!

    Love preening pose and what a stunner bird. Love seeing all the details in the white preened feathers.

    Wow I missed this one, lovely shot I like how you have captured the subtle colour differences in the light plumage, lovely pose too - well done.
