Nice series Dan. #2 really hits the mark.

Someone should tell the wood-duck mother that it's autumn down here, not spring!

Charles,
She is very late in the season, but i have found alot of birds recently where the young are just fledging now. Must be the season we've had down here, lots of rain and barely any days over 32c the whole summer, very strange.

Cheers,

#2 duckling is just the cutest ever......shoot more before they grow up.

Dan - you mention flash there - did you a flash extender ...?
-mirek

Mirek, No extender for these ones, the extender is pretty useless under 5 metres, is was only about 2 metres from these guys, just the bare 430ex at -1 exposue.

Cheers,
Dan.
