<p>The ducks around here get hunted so I can never get close enough! I'll have to get some city duck pics next time I venture from the hills.<br>

How about some cranes instead?<br>

<p>While I love all the birds here and there are some great ones, I got to say that I really ''LOVE'' Dougs image. It is simply a beautiful picture and would love it on my wall. It is very pleasant to look at :) Well done Douglas!</p>

[tomadakis]

<p>Great stuff from everyone!<br>

I loved this guy's feathers...</p><div></div>

<p>Antoni, that is beautiful. What a wonderful perspective!</p>
