I especially like the colourful photo of the Mandarin Duck and the Northern Shoveler with the waterdrops flying around. Awesome.

A very colourful bird. I like the pose and composition. But is the photo a little overexposed?

Thanks! These were all R5 MK II w/the RF600 f/4L IS + 1.4x. Tried doing everything handheld this last year, mostly successful, except for long periods of watching a GHO nest.

Thank you! We did get lucky having a Mandarin pair come in this year and stay at a local campground/fishing park. Hoping for ducklings this year even if they are 'invasive'.
