Earlier this week I found some Red-crested Pochards, nice birds i.m.o. and the flapping was the highlight of the visit. Thanks for any feedback, Cheers, Hans

You again have some really nice photos Hans. All from a good low angle. This one has a nice dynamic pose. I like the shadow and highlighted areas on the head in this one. Good for you.
Lovely, my kind of angle… great subject.
Hi Hans, nice low POV and the exposure looks spot on. Nice flapping pose with pleasing surroundings. Well done.
Hans, the wings flapping makes this shot extra nice. I like how the grasses in the background compliment the brown head. Such a nice shot with great details.
I can see why you like this species, Hans, it’s a stunning looking bird. Superb detail and pose. Very well done.
Hi Hans! Beautiful bird and beautiful shot! I love the pose and your detail and lighting are right on. The background works well too. Well done!
Great timing, lovely subject, great background… Add it all up… Great image. Nicely executed.
Great detail and pose on this beautiful duck.
Beautiful. Love the background and the wing flap. Lighting is just right, and I always love your blog posts! If anything, I think I’d add a touch of sharpening to the head.
Hi Hans,
The colors of this duck are wonderful. I especially like the expression of the face and eye. This duck is enjoying life. Well done…Jim
