A female Gadwall Duck followed by a couple males, with the snow covered mountain as a backdrop. Fast shutter speed and fast focus are critical for catching these ducks in flight. It’s quite a challenge. A similar challenge would be skeet shooting, using a shotgun with a high power scope on it!

You did a wonderful job capturing this beautiful image of the 3 ducks, Gary. Great detail in the ducks. Nice spacing between the males and the female.
Gary, the birds stand out beautifully in the large view showing excellent details. The background works well at letting them be the stars.
Gary: I might long for some separation of the males but this is pretty darn good as is. The BG helps a lot and I like that the wings are all in a similar almost choreographed position. Most excellent. >=))>
