Pacific Black Duck in flight

It was a good morning for birds at Tygum Park today, although I didn't manage to get all of the opportunities.

I'll post some of this morning's images over the next few days.

These ducks were circling over the lake for a while and I managed to get a few shots as they passed me. I missed most shots as I had somehow set the camera to single instead of continuous autofocus - not sure how as I never use single.

Nicely caught. They remind me of ornaments my mother used to have hanging on the wall

[wigz]

Thanks. Yes I remember some like that too.

Nice capture Alan. Even the common ducks have some appeal, especially when they are flying in a group.

[wigz]

Thanks Isac. Yes, very common but the group makes it a bit more interesting I think.

Absolutely agree Alan. I actually like the PB ducks, I watch them at the lake and they are very entertaining - the way they just faff about and do their thing and they just completely ignore me.

Some nice group shots you got there.

[wigz]

Thanks David. Unusually they flew around a few times giving me several chances.
