Thanks for your comments.
Re the lens. It was the "Bigma" Sigma 170-500 f4.5-6.7 A pretty good lens for birding in decent light. Next challenge I think is to get a good shot of a duck coming into land straight on towards me.
Maybe even one that is possibly better than this. I'm undecided.
OK - let's see it then

Look at the detail you have managed to catch - the one feather sticking out slightly from the brown throat, the drops of water still on the feathers and feet . You even managed to get him in mid quack so to speak
