Muscovy Duck in BW

I took a friend of mine on a photo walk the other night, and we visited Piedmont Park, which is Atlanta's central park. Fortunately, one of my favorite ducks was there--an odd creature with a face only a mother could love. On the bank was a full Muscovy family with about 10 chicks! I wanted to make this an artistic shot. The greys may be too ominous, but will work with a critique group to fine tune it! But look, I got a bird shot. Always warms my heart.
I like your choice of B&W here as it does give it an artistic edge. Fav!
