Lovely set of images, Karl. Love the beak on that shoveler duck and the coot "smoking grass"..

Teal are my picks. Good low angle buddy.

I was hoping for 'lower' but this place doesn't allow a way to get there.
Thanks Mr Lar for you picks buddy

That young drake shovelor looks like some day he will be called Mr. Hollywood. My favorite was the drake teal.
Al

Yes Al I never realized how gray or gray green their heads were in early Fall color, I really like these guys and gals. Still looking for a winner shot but it was nice that a few were in close and man they do not ever lift their heads, always busy feeding!

I was lucky to have that Drake Teal and his ladies mingled in, surely stood out from the mix nicely.
Thanks buddy

Really nice set, Karl. I'm liking the teal the best for some reason, maybe because I can almost hear the gurgling from your very very low angle.

The IF shots are... nice Karl - but you knew that.

5 and 6 are extra nice -even lush. 10 is lovely, and very peaceful. I like da weed too ~ Ron

Well Ron, they are nice in a way and lacking in other ways but I keep thinking of how silly I must look to someone watching me swing that 500 around as they rapidly approach and veeeeeer!

Thanks for the 'lush'...........that is new and special and I'll take it and

Glad you could appreciate the peaceful.........weed images my friend

I was dubious to remove 'bright' spots in many of my images that I thought would distract you, or open the door for a 'nit' from your peeve against them

Some really nice captures here Karl. Who else would think to use a 500mm on a cat tail? Six and eight are my picks.
Douglas

Douglas, people shoot birds with macro lenses when they can, so 'why not' a 500 on a weed

Thanks much for the nice comments, appreciated!

You have quite the imagination there Karl. The quackers are wonderful and you have indeed produced a wonderful tail of the cat and I will just have to visualize a beaver creating that notch...I have a few beaver shots like that one...and similarlym none with the alleged perpetrator.
Eric

Imagination? You don't see what I see

I just got an email from the senior naturalist at my local here and he spotted 3 Beavers at dusk as they were doing their Owl Walk of which I missed but two more are coming up that I can go to, yippee

I can't believe how many trees are going down from the Beaves!

Thanks

Nice set Karl. Glad you got out to shoot something other than gloom. I'm going with the more conventional here - Shoveler and wigeon are my pic picks. Sitting ducks are just pleasant and/or fun to view, even if their beaks are not on backwards.

It's OK to be conventional, I end up there occasionally

Good picks buddy and thanks much

Fantastic set Karl.

5, 6, & 7 are my favorites. Shovelers always catch my attention. I love the colors of the male green-winged teal. Always enjoy seeing them up close.

A kind thanks for the multiple picks, I too enjoy the Shovelers and hope to get more action with them soon.
Take care buddy

Nice job exposing the blacks and whites on these, Karl. Fine detail in all (except #3

), with 6 and 10 being my favorites.
