How low can you go? A great shot of this Goosander keeping a very low profile. It seems to have its eye on something. A superb image of a beautiful bird Adrian.

Thanks Ron....when geese fly off the lake the goosander duck their heads. If they see me within 20 yards they swim away and if they see me closer they fly off.

This image really made me smile, Adrian. I like how you've brought us down low with the bird, right into its world. Beautiful stuff :t:

Limbo dancing for this un Adi, super low-level capture. Looks like you were in the water with your head poking out for this, really well done.

That's really gorgeous Adrian, you must have been absolutely flat on the ground to get this terrific POV.
