That wind coming off the water sure did ruffle his feathers. You got youself a beautiful close up of him and brought out its features. I love the blue water as a backdrop that make his colors stand out. Also love the ripple of the water especially around his legs. Gorgeous look dear friend. Have a wonderful day. #11016443Mary K.
