It's been a while since I went for a walk with the intent of Photographing wildlife. I guess that's because my knees are not what they used to be. Honestly its not just the knees. I am not a young man anymore, but I am certainly looking to remedy the constraints I currently have. 

I wanted to see if I still had it. The skill set to take a decent wildlife photo. You are the judge. I am happy with my capture. 

DUCK copy

I had one moment as this duck was in the middle of preening and eating. I had to snap the frame as he looked at the sky. I will certainly enjoy these moments in the near future. 

Please let me know what you think of the composition in the comments 

Shot on my Sony, with a sigma 600mm and a 1.4 extender. Effective focal length 740mm. Some minor editing in Light room and this one is done. It really does pay off in the end when you shoot it right in the camera before post. 

Thanks all, Enjoy the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday.
