    Excellent Ben. The first one is my favorite, and where do you find these critters?

    Really nice, Ben!

    You have a gold mine, or I should say "Rainbow" in those beautiful ducks.

    They appear to be "your" bird, too.

    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!"

    Excellent set Benthumb.gif I love wood and mandarin ducks and you have caught them perfectly. Hopefully I will have the chance to see and photograph these beauties one day. All we ever get is the usually mallards around hererolleyes1.gif
