Mallard takes Flight (10745)

Lake Zurich

Not the image I was looking for, but it's the one I got.
Krissy and I began removing the pier today in preparation for the lake to freeze, and this gentleman and his mate were kind enough to let me take their portraits until I got too close.
There's more pier to remove, so maybe I can lure him back for a repeat with some bread crumbs.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS
1/320s f/5.6 at 85.0mm iso200 full exif
