Female Mallard

[rpk717]

I recently posted the male doing this flapping posture so I thought I would show the female doing the same display. Shot with the 1DMkIIn and 500mm lens.

Cool image - too bad we often overlook "park" birds for something more "attractive."

Beautiful shot and beautiful female mallard. Very nice detail :)

Colorful-sharp - walking on water.

That's pretty cool Robert. The head is dead on sharp, while the wings are blurred just enough to imply motion. Excellent photo.
