Shelduck in Rhos on Sea.

[Nathaniel]

Having recently seen all the lovely pictures of overseas birds on the forum, I thought I'd post this British Shelduck enjoying a quiet swim in Rhos on Sea, which is not where I can usually see these birds.

Re: Shelduck in Rhos on Sea.

Thanks Jeff,Les, Gord,Ian, George for taking a look. My recent purchase of the L 70-300mm makes all the difference. I was struggling without the right lens, weightwise etc. A special thanks to Gord for various PM's urging me on the right choice of lens. Yes, it is the 10% at the top end that makes all the difference I think.
