Judy,
Not easy to photograph ducks. I like the image, just not crazy about the blurred wing.

Pretty image! Great pose, light and techs. I actually like the blurred wings. If anything maybe shooting f5.6 or 6.3 could give you enough DOF but smoother BG.

Wonderful wing pose. I also like the form of the neck. Great exposure. I might try to blur the BG a little more. On the other side I also think that it looks good to see the habitat.
