Hey Steven, your duck will be up here in May and I'll be aiming for a shot like that! Funny, we get the green winged and blue winged and the green are far more aloof - night and day difference - do you notice that (assuming in the wild with this comment).

Anyway, lovely shot willhunt. You should put a copyright notice on your pictures.
LOL. Speaking of Harry, here are a few shots of him swallowing a Tilapia I helped him catch several days ago.

rpt...What are the advantages of putting a copyright notice on your photos? And how do you do it?

These 2 moorhens got into a big fight several days ago. I think it was over a female. ;D

serendipidy, how cool - I saw the same kind of thing back in the summer of '12 - they're vicious little fighters, aren't they?:

Nice capture.
Yes, I was surprised how they went at each other with their big feet and claws.
Kind of humorous to watch. ;D

Hey, Harry the Heron is back! Nice shots serendipidy.
You know what else I miss? Gary's eagles and wild life shots!
Gary, we are missing the samples of your skill!

It was discovering anything 1DX and Garry's eagles that brought me to CR and then when I went to show them to a friend they were gone.
Seems wherever humans congregate there are problems of one sort or another. I used to think we could take a lesson from the chickadees and then I saw two of them fighting over a little bathing pool. Generally though, CR is a pretty decent place thanks to the likes of Serendipidy to mention just one name. And this is one of the best threads, pretty warm and fuzzy.

Jack, thank you for those very kind words. I used to frequent other websites, but now spend most of my time here. There are so many great people who are helpful and give great advice. The photos posted on this site are so amazing. I also was blown away by Gary's wildlife and bird photos. I do miss him and his shots, but I guess all good things end sometime.
Talking about nature, 2 weeks ago I discovered a mother duck with 6 babies in the canal by my house. The father must have been killed and she may have an injured wing. Over the next few days, there were 5 then 4 and now only 2 babies left. I feed them bread every day since they seem so hungry. Another mallard pair arrived about a week ago and they harass and attack the mother and her 2 ducklings. Several times I saw the male almost drown the baby ducks. I hope they survive. Nature can be very cruel.
