Today, these Wood Ducks came out better than another pair I shot a month ago at

Ohhhh, they're beautiful, Regis! I love wood ducks and haven't seen "ours" yet this year.

Excellent image as usual Regis, and the reflections add a lot of visual interest too.

Beautiful shot Regis and beautiful ducks. I would think lighting is the difference.
