Shot captured last April while out birding down by the shore.
Got hold of this Mallard drake as it flew in low over the creek ..... zoomed in, framed, panning as I did releasing the shutter just as it took a slight twist revealing that bold blue speculum. Quite pleased with the end result.
Viewing large looks better.
