Dabchick, the smallest duck

Not a duck, but a grebe.

A solid image as posted. The composition including reflection is fine with me.

I like as is.

Looks like you have done well with a harsh light.Nice details and reflection.

Jagdeep, I like the alert pose and enjoy the bow wave. Your composition works for me. I see these same concentric circles in the iris of the eye of our Pied-billed Grebe when the light's just right for it.

Nice one Jagdeep - like the low angle and the typically golden light you get in lots of your shots.

cheers
Rob
