Your really nailing these BIF shots, Allen. Tack sharp and catching them coming towards the viewer. I prefer the first one for the wing position and the trees in the background. Do you have a dedicated button for these shots?
Hi Allen, thank you. I don’t have a dedicated button. I just change settings in manual mode on the fly.

Allen, these are absolutely stunning images. Outstanding detail and clarity throughout. Although both have a painterly look to them the first is amazing in that appearance overall. … 
Hi Allen
Great shots, The coloring, eye contact and feather detail is spot on. Like Allen, prefer the first frame.

And flying toward you with great eye contact! Excellent images, Allen.
What a beautiful duck. We don’t have those here that I know of. As others have said, that first one is really nice. Great head angle, wing position, feet visible, head not cut off by the wing and good light. What more can you ask for? Oh, maybe a second image to go with the first. LOL
Wonderful eye contact! Everything flies AWAY from me. Love the bright colours in great light, and the detail and position. Very well-done!
