Ladies and gentlemen, this is my 1st post on Canon rumors. First off, there is a lot of great work here! Secondly, I would love to submit a few of my own for your helpful critique, but I guess I'm not doing something right. I have tried to post before to no avail. Please give me a few tips on how to submit photos properly. Thanks for the help in advance, and keep up the superb photography!

Don, if you are referring to the 2nd photo, I believe that is a mandarin duck. They, like the wood duck you shot, are very beautiful. A put a few side view shots to help. I used to mix them up too! The 1st duck is a mandarin; the 2nd, a wood duck. Thanks for the kind word though.

I had never heard of a meandering duck. It is magnificent!

Don, you know all ducks meander, especially the tame ones. They also waddle. ;) Sure are lots of nice colors on a lot of different ducks, even the good old mallard.


Hoping for a better shot of the Green Winged Teal - I find them to be pretty.
