Been planning for this for a while. This is the closes encounter we have with this Philippine endemic from surveillance flight to touchdown. I observed all eyes of this duck is in our hide.

Nice series of shots Godski! All sharp and well composed. Could be my monitor, but the shadows are a bit blocked. All in all, great shots!

Excellent captures, Godo! These make me miss Candaba.
