went back to the park again this afternoon, the buffleheads were really active. the light was better for the iridescence on their heads, but the whites got a bit blown... :( and they were much farther away, so these are cropped quite a bit, and the image quality suffers some. still, i kinda like these action shots... 40D, 400mm, various exposures...

    thanks. with these little fellas, it's hard NOT to blow the whites a bit in sunlight... i guess that's the price for being able to get the iridescence on the heads... ne_nau.gif
