Sylvia and I went to Candaba last tuesday, 1/11/11. The date seemed very lucky and we were not disappointed. We got to see very interesting birds. A great way to start our birding for 2011. These ducks were spotted by Sylvia. They were close enough for us to take these shots. I took the first picture. Sylvia took the second picture.

Fantastic shots with amazing fine details.  Didn't even see these fellows last Saturday. Have to go back soon, the Twitch is unbearable. ;D |

Both beautiful captures. I did not even get to see them. Now I know how they look like. I like the grin on their faces or should I say beaks. Well done Sylvia & Tonji. Mabuhay.

Great images to start the year, Tonji and Sylvia. I like the inclusion of habitat here.

Thanks for nice comments guys.
In my opinion these are the least skittish ducks I have encountered. We were able to take lots of photos using our tripods instead of just using the car as a blind.
