Gadwall Dreams

Repost to get it back into my gallery.

This is the last of the "Sleepy Gadwall" series.  The male Gadwall is safely tucked away inside his cave of thick overhanging brush and has finally fallen asleep.  The bright sunlight was reflecting off the still water and lighting him as he slept.

In the larger version you can see that he even has zebra stripes on his eyelids!

Sony ILCE-6000, SEL-55210 @ 210mm, ISO-100, f/6.3, 1/1000, handheld.
