Off a Duck's Back

I was really amazed at the detail seen in a duck's feathers when viewed from behind. I thought the duck's behind was captivating. No wonder they shed water - like water off a duck's back. :) Female Mallard

Incredible wing pattern and design. The duck looks bored with the whole thing.

Is he sleeping? Only a creator could make a design like that!! That is really something, isn't it?

Terrific detail is right, Vern! I like how the lines of the feathers all line up. Fun shot.
