Here Are 31 Finalists Of This Year’s Bird Photographer Of The Year Contest
#23 Tufted Duck By Brad James
It’s always a pleasure when you are able to capture both males and females of the same species in one image. I often find it tricky with waterfowl as they tend to overlap in some way. Consequently, I was very pleased when this scene lined up perfectly, with the drake framed and referenced by the out-of-focus duck in the background. To obtain this image, I lay motionless on the edge of the pond, practically at water level.
