    Preening is just finished but the down sticking out of its nostril tells the story.

    Lots of nice feather details here Karl.
    Exposure perfect. Great POV. You have captured the iridescence of the blue beautifully.
    A very nice image of an often overlooked duck.

    I like the composition, details, exposure and down filled nostril. Well done Karl.

    Nice details Karl and you got the angle right for the speculum to be lit well. Not an often posted duck. TFS

    Hi Karl, lovely low angle, and I like the light showing up the colour on the wing. The fluff in the nostril certainly does add that something extra.
