    Default Pintail Ducks

    Captured these Pintails today. They have just arrived on the estuary.
    As the always stay so far out they are difficult to capture unless you have a really big lens .
    How ever I managed to capture an in flight of qa group the first shot and inthe second I have cropped the mail at the top and added the female from the right hand bottom corner.
    Have also cloned out a the beak of another which didn't quite make the shot from the top left corner

    Nice captures Beryl, the second one is good in that it shows the tail well.
