Am resting today and not planning on chasing birds (At least I don't think so. If the sun comes out might change my mind). Retired from job safety/health career three years ago today on my birthday, allowing plenty of time to photograph the outdoors.

 

Placed camera protected by an old tee shirt on the ground underneath the bird feeder, hoping to get a close up of a junco or cardinal using remote release. A couple of mallard ducks came instead. Discovered that a duck's head moves quickly when feeding, and this is the only photo of it's head which is close to being in focus. But using f4 aperture at 0.3 meters away complete focus would be tough.

 

Extra: Aging must be on my mind: has the duck's leg been losing collagen?
