I like this - love the vertical format with the landscape at top. And the similarity of colouration between subject and background is a very nice aspect of this image. Well spotted.

Nice shot.
I was also surprised yesterday to see one chick of these birds in the Lauwersoog harbour (NL).
I also see four duck chicks, too. It took by completely by surprise, I even forgot to take pictures the first time.

Nice one Philip. Perhaps a touch more contrast to lift the overall appearance?
