Comment from Linda Engel
A little flirty , a little show off but so , so pretty. Wonderful wing span full of details in very nice focus. I love the male's expression. "Wow, chick, Watch the wing, babe" Great position . great lighting and well framed.

This is a very clear portrait of this mated pair of mallards. I like the way you framed this with the grass and the rock leading the eye into the scene. The outstretched wings of the female fully show off her form.

Very nicely captured image. Great focus provides wonderful details in her plumage and feathers. The water background is perfect for making things visible. Good stop action as well. He on the other hand seems somewhat underwhelmed by the whole thing. Well seen and well shot.

Lol! He is kind of just there! I actually thought about cropping him out of the scene but I found humor in his furtive demeanor :)
Thank you for your nice comments.

Thank you very much Sange! I'm glad you like this one. She was really showing off. I have a bunch of shots with her wings in different positions, but I liked how this one showed so much of the white fluff under her wings.
