Christmas is coming and I better post the photos I've taken during the last few weeks. I actually didn't go out as often as the last few months, but I still tried to visit Sekino-E at least once a week. Nothing special actually, the Bean Geese are still around as usual and I also met a birder from Oita coming to take photos of the geese as well. Common Teals are still around in good number. When there's nothing else for me to do, I often sit and take photos of the them. The number of the beautiful males seemed to increase, and in a few weeks, they should be starting the group display. Next Thursday will be the beginning of my Christmas-New Year vacation. There are lots of places that I want to explore, and I'll definitely go to Onozuru to photograph the Baikal Teal again. Hope I'll get some better shots.
Common Teal (Anas crecca)
I always love the evening light of winter!
Here's a group from Furui-chi area, about 5 females with just 1 male.

Some great exposures here. You really picked up the green on the males. Especially the first shot. -It's a real beauty.
Russell is right. You really got right down to eye level and captured light in the eye of the male, together with the green colouration of the head.
