Spread your wings.

I'm sorry I missed a bit of his wing. He posed so nicely and my aim was just off. I asked him to do it again...but he wasn't that nice.

[Melanie K]

Love it.

[Rick Schies]

Looks like he is doing a bit of a jig for you.

[Dawn Loehr]

Great capture! Clarity is fabulous...love the white of his feathers.

[Courtney]

Ha! Funny! Great expression!

[Allison Williams]

Amazing colors. Almost looks like you processed the picture with selective B&W.

[marg]

What a little tubby duck! He is very proud of his gorgeous wingspan too by the looks of it. He is adorable.

[Sheila]

Cute even with part of the one wing off the photo...LOL! Like how the underside of his wings is white.

[Jennifer C]

[Harsh Brown]

Beautiful photo!

[cheryl green]

sometimes what you don't see, but is suggested, works quite well. I love this photo...great colors...

[Linda Paul]

I kind of like it this way. I agree with Cheryl. I still have little coughing fits once or twice a day, but not bad. How 'bout you?

[Julie Ryan]

a beautiful bird

[Margaret Tryon]

@ldpaul Linda, the coughing isn't too bad, but it came with asthma, and the breathing is still difficult. It is improving. I'm going to try and go back to work the end of this week.

[Susan]

Still great capture!

[Kim]

[Karen Sylvia]

[Charlene Barker]

I like the shot and composition.

[Kalexa]

A flasher, lol ...or maybe saying, "wanna buy a watch?"

[Krista]

[Beth]

This is almost comical the way he's standing. He's a fat duck. Nice capture.

[robinwarner]

[Sarah Miller]

Wonderful capture even with the wing clip by accident! I love all the grey and brown tones!

[Margaret Tryon]

@kalexa LOL

[Barbara Warner]

Great capture even with a bit missing.

[wendy chapman]

This duck is still poosing nicely for you. This background reminds me of Port Washington where there a piled rocks lining part of the harbor.

[jerry plume]

Looks like its doing the chicken dance! Great capture!

[Lindsey C.]

I love it! Beautiful wings!

[Devrin Wimberley]

[Megs Warren-Lister]

Love it, cool capture

[Della]

[Tabbycat]

Aarggh...don't you hate that! That's why I like my statues. LOL! This is still a great shot!

[Amy Brown]

Great shot Maggie -his wings look stuck on because of the colour difference.

[Pyrrhula]

[Heather (pixelchix)]

well, the nerve! i like it even without the whole wing....cheeky little guy, huh? and i was sure i was already following you margaret, and just now realized i wasn't! took care of that error!

[Henriette Sparkes]

I think the crop enhances the shot! Fabulous!!

[Margaret Tryon]

@pixelchix Heather, LOL I thought I was following you also. Well, even though I didn't do it officially, I've been following your pictures. :-)

[FaerieMoon]

Haha--nope, he looks about ready to chase you down!

[cynce frantz]

wonderful capture he clearly is communicating!!! what i'm not sure...

[Alta D©]

it's a good thing he was in a mood to pose, at least. =) great capture.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Aww. Great capture, Margaret.

[~Sarah Immel~]

LoL @ asking him to do it again! ....I think it came out great love the wings, looks like angel wings. Great capture!

[cglist]

I love this chubby little duck! I think it's a neat shot!

[Kathryn Marshall]

This shot is unique because part of the wing is not showing. This shot caught my interest as I was scrolling through the daily pictures. If birds would only follow our directions!

[Jen Dee]

Terrific capture!

[Cheryl Dolan]

Nice capture.

[Cheryl]

look like Victorias Secret wings! Great capture!

[Shirley Chetwynd]

Wonderful pose he gave you anyway

[trude]

How uncooperative of him not to give you a second shot! I love this though, fantastic!

[Tena E. Collyer]

HaHaHa, he's funny! Love this =)

[Paula Fontanini]

It's still a GREAT picture Margaret even if he was uncooperative! :)

[Amy Spada]

Terrific capture, Margaret!!!

[Juliette Packham]

great shot - lovely timing - superbly captured

[Melissa]

This really made me smile. Awesome.

[Danny Davies]

Lovely photo. It's not that he was not nice. It was you who doesn't speak the Quackers language you must have missed the classes at the Quackers school..

[Jennifer]

very cute margaret! missed you alot, good to be back:)

[B]

He's wonderfully detailed on his feathers.

[Ellen E]

If you hadn't told me about the wing, I wouldn't have noticed - the composition is perfect. She looks very regal.

[Beverly Moolman]

I think it is perfect!

[Lux Vivens]

Such a cutie pie! :)

[Dave Schofield]

Ha, great shot.
