Wow Eric, these are awesme. Love the light in these a lot. The preening in #1 makes it so cool with that action, but the male and female pairing in #2 also really works well.

Okay, now off to the maps, I need to place this location in my head to see if I can stop by there in another month or so.

not the best for duck photography because you can't get eye level . But during the winter there are ducks

Great shots, Eric. I'm glad they are back. I hadn't seen them since they flew off a week ago when we were there.
