That's Black-bellied Whistling Ducks. One from this spring on the Texas coast.

A very nice grouping, Nate. Excellent detail and I like the wing positions.

Nate, I see these regularly around Bayou Sauvage, and they are my favorite ducks for their vibrant color and distinctive call. You've framed them well getting very pleasing wing positions, up to your high standards. If mine I'd probably bump the overall exposure up a bit. Nice work as usual.

These ducks make such nice flight images. Looks very sharp to me.

Nate: really like the diagonal line that the ducks have formed as well as their wing positions. Maybe just a touch more exposure on the ducks. Richard

I like the composition here with the wings all in basically the same direction. I like the color. We don't have these in the Pacific Northwest. A nice-looking duck. And you can send a few our way if you happen to drop by.
