Part 14 of today's massive walk haul! Spotlighting the domestic mix down at the water this morning, featuring everything from classic dark mallards to these beautifully marked piebald ducks. Watching the different flocks interact and work the shoreline together is always a cool sight on thes

Part 13 of today's massive walk haul! Check out the cover slide where we caught a female Mallard perched way up high on a tree stump—not something you see every day. Followed that up by tracking a gorgeous Great Blue Heron as it launched and took flight straight across the open pond! Since L

Part 12 of today's massive walk haul! Getting some beautiful, close-up frames of the Mallards and their ducklings resting on the bank, right next to a hidden turtle working the dark shallow waters. The color details on that Mallard drake are absolutely stunning. Since Lemon8 keeps our carous

Part 11 of today's massive walk haul! We've got a little bit of everything hitting the banks now, from turtles soaking up the sun on the logs to ducks and geese working the grass right together. The variety down at the water's edge this morning was absolutely crazy. Because Lemon8 ca

Part 10 of today's massive walk haul! Shifting gears for a second to catch this turtle soaking up the morning sun on a fallen log, right before a great blue heron cut straight across the treeline. When you spend enough time looking closely at the water's edge, you end up catching a littl

Part 9 of today's massive walk haul! Just when you think the pond has settled down after that goose charge, a mother wood duck and her ducklings cruise into the frame. Wood ducks are notoriously shy and fast, so catching a family navigating the shoreline alongside the geese is an awesome tra

Part 8 of today's massive walk haul! Managed to freeze the action perfectly as this Canada Goose went into a full territorial charge across the water with its wings wide open. Watching the sheer speed and power they use to clear out their personal space on the pond is incredible. Because Lem

Part 7 of today's massive walk haul! Just when you think the pond has settled down, you spot a whole new angle. We are still sorting through the massive batch of frames from this morning's trail run. Because Lemon8 caps carousels at 10 images each, I'm keeping the chapters rolling ba

Part 6 of today's massive walk haul! Managing to catch the Great Egret lifting off and taking flight right over the rest of the ducks on the water. Even got a couple of white Pekin ducks mixing into the crowd on slide 3. The pond was absolutely bustling this morning. Keeping the chapters rol

Part 5 of today's massive walk haul! Check out this incredible frame where we caught a Great Egret, Canada Geese, and ducks all working the exact same shallow water line. Seeing three different species sharing the pond and hunting side-by-side is exactly why you take the slow way around. Bec

Part 4 of this morning's trail haul! Finishing up our close-up sequence with this incredible mother duck and her single duckling before we move on to the rest of the pond. Since Lemon8 caps carousels at 10 images, I’m rolling straight through the chapters so you don't miss any of the tra

Part 3 of this morning's walk! Still capturing the close-up moments with this mother duck and her duckling. Watching them navigate the shoreline together was definitely worth the early hike. Since Lemon8 keeps our carousels limited to 10 photos, I'm rolling right into the next chapter of

Part 2 of this morning's trail haul! Sticking with the mother duck and her single duckling as they navigate the shoreline. Since Lemon8 caps us at 10 images a post, I’m dropping the next chapter of the sequence right here so you can see the whole progression. We are actively expanding our
