I love Wood Ducks. I hadn't seen one until a Thanksgiving weekend visit to Stanley Park where I saw a really handsome one. He looked just like this. I wonder if it was the same one. I didn't get any good photos of him. I love your close-up. It shows his amazing marking very well. From the * perspective, I'm not excited about the frame here and I might crop a bit less tight but not much. Still, it's a great shot of a fascinating duck. Ann C
