Ducks

It is almost spring around here. With temperatures above 40F most of the last week, the snow is melting, and it still keeps worm. So we set off for the afternoon in the neighboring State Park. Couple of hours, and it seems I am well set for the week of blogging. Although I still feel that winter is not exactly a colorful season, there was a lot of photo opportunities for pattern, but also some wildlife. When I first saw those birds in the distance on the river, I wasn’t exactly sure, what they are. I added 2x teleconverter on top of my 18-200 mm lens, and with effectively 600 mm (sometimes I like my 40Dx :) ) I took this environmental portrait of ducks on the snowy beach.
