To me he looks like he is trying to do a trick or show off.

Canon Digital Rebel XTi
f7.1
1/640
ISO 200
Canon 100 mm macro (I meant to bring the 70-300, but I was in a hurry and grabbed the wrong lens. I guess that's kind of funny too. :smile: )

Great pose Barb. It would have been really nice to have gotten the reflection of the duck in the water, but that danged grass is in the way!

Just something I noticed after I posted. I did a small amount of cloning which I think improves the composition.

It looks like a mutant duck--was there a nuclear power plant nearby? :wink: :biggrin:
