This female American Wigeon was photographed during last year's trip to NM. Went through some of my old pictures to help gear up for this year's trip.

Canon 30D, Canon 400 DO
F6.3, 1/1600, ISO 400, manual mode
Hand held down and dirty duck poop

C & C always welcomed and appreciated,

Hi Marina - This is a sweet image of another of my favorite ducks. The golds and browns are rich and the behavioral pose is nice. You are really making that 400DO shine. Makes me wish I had one after a four mile hike with the 500F4 hanging over my shoulder.

This is great Marina... fantastic detail and a unique and intimate composition... very nice!

[Kiran Poonacha]

would have prefered a 2/3 comp. beautiful light and details..

[Ákos Lumnitzer]

Love the comp, very intimate and lots of wonderful detail. Well done my friend. :)

Marina, I love to see preening shots and this one is too cute! The way the feathers are arranged and the sharp eye really make this one special.
