    Sweet, sweet, sweet -- almost too big in the frame. Were you in a car or a blind? Love the droplets and the sharpness.

    with love, a

    ps" maybe go to an AF point higher in the frame for stuff like this to get the full head reflection ...

    Nice pose and water drop.
    Parallel ducks are a tough crop. It is tight.

    Wonderful frame of this hen. Love the water drops off of the bill. The low angle and light are killer.
