Pretty bird, you could have used a little fill flash which would have brought out more detail on the head. You probably could adjust it some in ps.

Thank you for the tip on the use of fill flash.

I'll echo Padre, fill flash would bring out the "POP" of the head. Mallard drakes are mainly recognizable by their green (and bluish) irradecant heads. You may want to try to make the dominant characteristics "pop" when capturing birds.

Crisp photo though. I like the warm colors of the rocks. Is this in Oswego?

A lovely photo. I have attempted some duck photos but can't seem to get it right!
