Your pics really show all of the beauty that is nature. The shots where the mallards head is at an angle and you can see all colors, amazing. The wood duck pic is nothing short of incredible.

Very nice. 

I can see the first photo as a great Taxidermy pose, I got a Black Duck in at the Taxidermist now......hmmmm. 

It looks like a cloudy day how did you pull off that high shutter speed and maintain such good depths and color? 

Great photos, thank you.

x4 That wood duck is truly amazing, wow. That bird is on my bucket list, I've never shot one but even the wife said I could hang that on the wall when I showed her your pic. I have my room and she has her's, my room is full but she won't let me infiltrate her space with my animals, so I was pleased when she gave me the OK for the wood duck. Thanks, great picture.
“In common with”..... not so much!!

Thank you guys, I appreciate all the kind words.   
I shot it where I could control the speed.  I pushed 500 so that I could have stop action.   The light did stink.

Yes I haven't heard the term push in some time probably since the film days.  I have been just recently experimenting with controlling shutter speeds and will continue more so now.
  Thank you for the tip and again nice work on you.
