What a handsome fellow, Jim. I like the implied slow movement, and the fact that he appears truly in his natural element...

I love the uniqueness of the variety of these Ducks! Well Done!

Others have said it all Jim, this really is a nice image and the reflection is eye catching.

Nice image and reflection - I didn't know they change their plumage for the breeding season?

I really like the look in his eye and the blue beak is beautiful. The blue reflection in the water really adds to the portrait.

Great shot and light and the perfect color handling! We have this one as a very rare visitor to Sweden.

l've never seen one of these. A self-contented and attractive duck, well photographed.
