We were in Manitowac this past weekend. Another neat historic town. I only have one photo ready to go so far.

Love the shot, lots of Canada geese around lately, plus my Mallards are back! I'm sure she'll nest in the same spot, on the corner of my house behind a big evergreen!

Thanks hankejp and susancruzs!
Yeah, I had my long lens, I was probably twenty-thirty yards away. I had a hard time getting a good focus. I was using my monopod and leaning against a tree most of the time.
The first one I cropped down to 17.5 inches wide and the second one is cropped to 25 inches wide, that's from 54 inches.

Looking at the pics again, I could see how it would be hard to AF with the branches around there.

It was hard to pick out and hold on his head!! LOL
I followed him around for ten minutes trying to get a decent shot of him. He wasn't scared where he would fly away, he just kept walking away from me. Finally he went into this heavy stuff where I couldn't get a clear shot of him.
