Very nice. Great head angle, exposure. I love the detail in the breast feathers.
You are killing me with the wood duck images. Do people feed these ducks?

Well, what can I say except wonderful image!! Good exposure control, the colours look great, and I like your choice of crop. The "squished" head reflection is a bit quirky but beyond your control...perhaps you have a frame taken just before or after that has a less distorted reflection. Very well done :-)
Love it as presented, great light, colors and detail, water and reflexion look great to me :)
Congratulations!
Yes. There are two male Wood Ducks hanging out with a large group of Mallards.Originally Posted by Randy Stout
The pond is in a heavily developed commercial area and people come by on most days
to feed the ducks. The Wood Ducks are almost as acclimated as the Mallards.
The biggest challenge is isolating the Wood Ducks from the many Mallards.
Fantastic details, light, colors and eye contact Mike. Very well done
