    More good high-key stuff. The belly might go a bit brighter and a crop from the top left would tighten it up a bit.

    Neat looking duck. Never saw one before. High key works well here.

    Strange bit of evolution going on with this one. Close binocular vision might be limited. Agree on a tighter crop with the branch coming from the corner.
