Based on the first submission I think the standard this month could be very high. I do not envy the judge!

Eagles? All the way to Malaysia for a picture?

Imagine how long it took me to get that duck to stand still for my shot? I even had to bribe it with a bit of pond weed!!!

Your photo is of a Goose, not a Duck.

It is a Graylag Goose - Details here

Tee Hee

It's a not bad image but the top of the fox's ears are missing.

BTW - Tanya only kills Reds.

The fox gets my early vote too - well done John

Wildlife isn't my strongpoint either but I'll see what I can do!
