I thought this Ring-Necked drake had a bit of an attitude. Beautiful species, these guys.

Love this guys pose. Nicely captured, Jerry. The horizon line seems slightly off to me.

That eye really grabs attention, Jerry. The low angle view, the sharpness seen in the larger version, and the reflections make this an excellent image.
