I am sure Mom and Pop would say he is so pretty and cute. What a different and kind of strange looking little baby. Good frame and focus with a reflection as we discover a new big world.

Comment from nature rules
Awwww..he really would be cute if it weren't for his bald head! Is it supposed to be bald or has he been abused by larger birds? Your composition is excellent. The initial impact for me is the coloration of your scene blending in with the duckling. It accentuates the color of his face and beak. I always look to see if the eye is clear. This is a tough one since the surrounding colors are those that tend to over saturate themselves. I have enjoyed this very much. Great job. Sincerely, Rebecca

Comment from SteveANH
Well.. I tell him/her she WILL be beautiful! LOL I looked up the Eurasian Coot and it is remarkable the transformation this little guy/gal will end up almost all black with a small white patch on her head and a white bill!
Nicely framed, great details.

Comment from Susan F. M. T.
Fred,
It's mother thinks it's very beautiful poor little Coot I'd say is no long out of it's Egg! It's down barely dried out & it's already swimming & casting a shadow reflection on the mirror still water that is reflecting the overcast sky above. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting with superb camera techniques with razor sharp focus.

Aw! Bless! Great capture of this cute little duckling. I'm sure he'll grow up to be just as beautiful as his parents. I like the angle you used for this showing his clear reflection in the water as he bimbles along in the sunshine.
Lighting and focus very good showing great detail. Very nice composition. Suzanne

Very cute title for this capture. The clarity is great. The angle of the shot of the wild looking bird is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balance and eye interesting to the viewer. Great eye and great job overall.
