Beautiful capture. Like the relection. This is a duck I haven't seen yet.

Excellent shot ! And if you are the chap I met on the Bridge in the wetlands a little after you took this photo, It was nice to meet you :-)

Thanks for the comments.
And yes, ozoutback1, that was the old 0ystercatcher crossing the bridge.

Old? Good grief! Very nice shot this one, I've never even got near one.
