Ducky stuff at Botanic Gardens

[budak]

Took mostly ducks and other stuff as squatting down to wait for small hoppy birds was a Pain-In-The-As*...

All taken handheld with Canon 40D + 400mm 5.6, except the whip snake (100mm 2.8 macro).

that duck tail reminds me of a guppy.

Nice snake shot. Like something out of National Geographic page.

You got the common kingfisher! Beautiful migratory!

But the lesser whistling duck looks really unnatural. Was it flapping a wing? Or was there another hidden bird next to it?
