No, I didn't catch him in the middle of a blink. :-) He really was just about to nod off.

@tolpol Hi Paul - Wow, it's Great to hear from you! Yep, lighting is often a key element ina shot. (I'm trying to catch up, as I have gotten waaaay behind in my "viewing time", so I'll be seeing you.....Les

@kdrinkie Hi Kim- Thanks a lot; he was too cute to pass up. :-) Hope you are having a great week, Les x

@maggie2 Wow! Stunning?! He's just a Duck! LOL Seriously though, thank you kindly, and I agree, I think the lighting was key to the shot. Thanks as always for making time to take a "look-see" Les x

@princesicita Greetings form Connecicut, USA! Thank you so much for stopping by and taking the time to leave a generous comment. It's always exciting to hear from someone new.
Speaking of new, I took a quick glance through your "365" and was pretty well astonished; what a gorgrous collection! It is brimming with interest, and bursting with brilliant color, and it is also filled with the wonderment, ("Patience") of the Natural world (my favorite subjects to photograph) I look forward to seeing future postings, because I am your newest follower. (Have you made the Top 20? I saw it as possible) Be well, Les

[Leslie Manna]

@shellbelle That is VERY welcome news, Michelle. Please let Sam know that I am relieved for him, and that you all three are still being thought about. Thanks for the update, Les x

[Margaret Tryon]

Leslie, I find most animals stunning. But your shot is really what I love about this.

[Catherine]

Sooo beautiful and so relaxed. Lovely lighting, Les

[Crickle]

wonderful lighting. I love taking pics of water fowl, you did a great job with this

[Leslie Manna]

@maggie2 Such a thoughtful comment, Maggie; thank you. Be very well, Les x

[Leslie Manna]

@crickle1969 Thanks so much, especially since this is NOT the kind of bird I am accustomed to photographing :-) Be well, Les

[Leslie Manna]

@cath Much appreciated Cath - I too, was gloriously relaxed just being out in the sun with him. :-) Always lovely to hear from you, Les
