Great job on these. Well captured. This time of the year it is difficult to tell if the duck is an adult or juvenile.
Al

Thanks Al. Yeah, I have no clue although I have figured out which one is the female.

They are so very shy and move far away the instant they sense you ! Great set . 3 & 4 are my favorites.

I like #1 esp., but watch the highlights and the horizon looks to be off. You could try a blind or luring them in with corn! (Do they eat corn; not sure. Some ducks do.) Nice stuff. Don

You couldn't tell these are big crops, I loved them all. Great clarity and colours.
David

Thanks David. I rechecked the crops and they are like 3 - 4 mp. I consider that really tiny

I looked it up and these are divers that eat insects and clams and stuff like that. As to baiting with corn ... Sorry, when it says "do not feed wildlife" it's not going to happen. I know you were trying to help and I appreciate that
