One advantage of a retention pond is that the small area they take up allows you to get close to your subject. That was the case with this Hooded Merganser.

    I really like the fourth and fifth one Ira with the head plumage on full display. I agree too that if the hoodies land in a small pond you are more likely to have a good shot at getting closer!

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
