A good looking nature image posted here! Your fine and appropriate composition offers us a very enjoyable view of mum and her many ducklings swimming along. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well taken!

The interplay of light and shadow here is breathtaking. It gives the piece a sense
of movement. The composition of the busy mother and babies and colour harmony in this work is pleasing. Thanks for sharing!

This is a very unusual bird that you've been able to photograph. And you are right she will be busy for many days to come. Wonderful composition colors, tones and presentation. Thank you for sharing.

This is a wonderful portrait of this darling duck family. There's nothing cuter than chicks. And when the chicks ride on the mother's back, that is so adorable and entertaining. This is a spectacular shot with beautiful color framed expertly and shot with technically superior skill.

What an accomplished photographer you are. And what an accomplished mother this Merganser is. This is quite a photograph tells quite a story. I love the composition as well. I do wonder how you got the water highlight reflection only around the mother and ducklings. It really centers the focus of attention. Reasons for my six-star vote.
