Duck Season!

My battle to capture ducks digitally has finally concluded.

It's been an on again, off again quest as Mallards are incredibly touchy. Apparently, their personal space is a radius of at least 50 yards. The slightest movement would set them off. The geese? They don't give a rat's tuckus.

Caught 'em on the wing. Yes, it's a little blurry, but better than I thought at the time.
I can't believe how their colors stand out.

A still shot. Finally!

The funny thing is the female has a call that reminded me of Burgess Meredith's Penguin squawk opposite Adam West's Batman. Yeah, it's probably just me.

Happy Thanksgiving! Gobble! Gobble!
