    One from a local pond, this Muscovy has, for some reason, made it's home on a nearby reserve, so I went to check it out, and he came by with very close pass at one point. Not quite the water level angle I prefer, but if I go back with my wellies then I'm sure I can get the shot I want!

    Great detail on the face with pores and wrinkles clearly visible and well framed with white feather detail.
