Gadwall (Anas strepera)

Sorry about this one, I was a long way, too far for my lens.

  9. Nothing for you to be sorry about Bob. An excellent image of a duck shown in it's natural habitat, and not that of a bird in a glass case in a museum.

  14. The gadwall has the most fantastically subtle plumage of any duck, brilliant camouflage principles

  21. Everyone should pay attention to a Gadwall. It is often overlooked but it is a study in subtle beauty.
