Do you know how many people would give an arm and a leg to have that as their image? You have such a sensitive eye and know just when to clock. Two for the price of one and in the tree of all things....You are my duck in the tree hero!

Hello Asbed,
Superb composition with this mated pair of wood ducks in their natural surroundings. Colors are good, focus is great and depth of field is spot on. Great work Asbed.

Hello Asbed,
This is the best I've seen from you so far since I know you. Great detail and sharpness. colors and light are just perfectly balanced. Composition is just perfect, one attention go form one bird to the other and throughout the image. I love the brilliant blue sky that enhanced your image beautifully. I love it.

Hello Asbed,
This is a superb sharp capture of the male and female Wood Duck nicely composed together on a willow tree against a pleasing blue sky.
A delightful image and thanks for sharing it,

Hi Asbed, this is an interesting pose. I'm not used to seeing ducks in trees. You've picked up very excellent detail on these two. The colour is great, I especially like how they contrast with that great sky.

Thanks, John

Hi Asbed,
This is new to me. Wood ducks high up in a tree. Both ducks are sharp in focus and well seen against blue sky. Very nice pov and composition.

Hi Asbed,

I love your notes - you are so cute! What a dynamite picture this is. Amazing to get two wood ducks posing so beautifully on this wonderful tree in this lovely setting. Both ducks are crystal clear with great details and colors. I would love to get a shot like this - it's great.

Hi Asbed,
This is a really nice composition of the perched couple of Wood Ducks. This remind me of a similar sighting I witness last spring, but your picture is much better that I could do that time. The colours and details are perfect. TFS

Asbed,
A shot with a bird in it, that's what I love about this one I think, or is it that I've never seen a duck on a tree?Dunno, but I love your work bro!
Keep it up!
Cheers!

J'ai déjà vu quelques uns de ces canards mais mon ombre les fait fuir! J'aime beaucoup l'originalité de ta photo, des canards sur une branche, c'est rare, même s'il s'agit de canards branchus! J'aime aussi ta recherche de garder les animaux dans leur environnement plutôt que de faire des close-ups de photos. J'aime beaucoup les voir ainsi, dans la belle lumière du printemps et sous un beau ciel bleu! Oui, ils seront de retour sous peu! Merci Asbed!

Salut Asbed,
Super tes deux Canards Branchu. Les couleurs sont belles et bien saturé. J'aime le mouvement que donne la branche incliné.
Merci,
Roger
