Shoveler (Anas clypeata)

These guys don't always come very close to the hide, so this was a treat, especially in the nice light we had that day.

Would you believe his eye really was the colour of my text - amazing, isn't it.

I'm early on parade today, as I've a hospital visit this morning... I'll try and catch up with you all later on.

I love the details captured, especially the bird's reflection.

Very good for a picture postcard / calendar.
