In a Flurry

By KingArthur
An archived shot captured on a late evening in March 2021 while out on a birding sortie.

Had spotted this Mallard drake out over the creek and readied my camera as it took a twist and flew in low ..... managing to grab a quick burst just as it flapped down over the water. This frame makes for an interesting action capture, and rather pleased with the shot.

Viewing large looks better.

Action Gear -
Camera: Nikon D500
Lens: Nikkor 200-500mm at 500mm

Have a great day and a good week,
Joe Smile
