I decided to set the white balance in ACR for different looks and decided on Tungsten.

#1 - Parent feeding a juvenile.

#2 - Teenager.

#3 - Teenager.

Well caught. They are sometimes quite evasive..:-)

Isac goes and trains them daily!

[Isac]

Thanks Mark and yes Hans, I do!! They are quite aggressive to other makes and models of ducks and extremely territorial.

Nice shots. Really like the interaction in the first one.

Cheers David. I was surprised to still see the young ones hanging around the folks but I guess it's like a lot of teenagers these days

Well captured Isac. It is surprisingly difficult to get both birds at a good angle in this situation.

It's interesting how they feed the juveniles when the food is right beside them. I assume the parents are teaching the young what to eat.

I'm not sure about the colour - it certainly looks a bit different.

Cheers Alan. They are very entertaining to watch during the food sessions. I did wait a while to get them facing each other. The white balance change was just an experiment so it sort of worked and it is different than the norm.
